Are you looking for a great cash gift for Christmas? Well then! With little time required, you’ll have a handmade and individual cash gift. 

Here is the pattern:


 
Material: 100% mercerized cotton 50 g/125 m, crochet hook size 2. With the specified yarn, the pig will be approx. 10 cm tall.
The pattern is illustrated in detail and suitable for beginners with basic crochet skills.

Here I’ll show you a few original crocheted gift packages:

Cash gifts and gift cards are becoming more and more popular as presents. But so they don’t come across as impersonal, you need original packaging.
How about this cute moose coin purse?

It’s quick to crochet and will surely continue to be used. It has room for money, gift cards, and also other small gifts such as jewelry.
You can find the pattern for the coin purse here.   

You can also crochet pretty packaging for (homemade) sweets:

You can crochet the crafting snowman (you can choose between a knitting and a crocheting snowman) from just a few leftover yarn scraps. He is attached to the lid of an empty jam jar.
You can find the pattern for the snowman here!

If you prefer something more summery, you might rather crochet the monkey with the palm tree onto the lid of your jam jar:


This packaging is especially nice for coconut cookies.
You can find the pattern for the monkey with the palm tree here!

You can also give sweets of all kinds wonderfully in this camper van:

I crocheted it around a box of Ferrero Rocher chocolates. But you can also snack on the chocolates yourself and then fill the box with something else ;-)
The bus is not hard to crochet, because it consists only of single crochet stitches and lots of straight pieces.
The pattern for the camper van is available here!

Wrapping bottles is another one of those things. Usually you have paper bottle bags. Isn’t this crocheted lucky pig much more fun?


For it, you need about 100 g of pink cotton yarn with a yardage of 125m/50g (e.g. Catania) in pink, a little craft stuffing, and googly eyes or safety eyes.
You can find the pattern for the lucky pig here!

Don’t you also think that some gifts have a terribly impractical shape for wrapping in paper? These crocheted gift bags can help, and you can crochet them in any size you like.

The bags look attractive and can also be reused every year. So you’re also helping to avoid packaging waste!

Some couples get engaged under the Christmas tree. A small gift for a (future) bridal couple—usually that’s money or a gift card too—fits into the belly of this crocheted bride and groom:

The two are each crocheted around a Kinder Surprise egg capsule. This lets you open the belly and hide a little surprise (the engagement ring?) inside. To crochet the bride and groom, you only need a few leftover yarn scraps, stuffing, 2 empty Kinder Surprise egg capsules, and the pattern.
The pattern for the bride and groom is available here!
