The Christmas Crochet-Along has been a great success! For the past month or so I’ve had the pleasure of watching the entries come in, and seeing all the special little touches (yarn choices, pattern modifications, mix-and-matching, etc) that make each project a unique creation.

And what better way to celebrate Christmas than to show off the wonderful seasonal crochet-along projects! As there are so many, I’ve split them into 2 posts, and I hope you’ll enjoy looking through all the entries as much as I have.

Stay tuned for part 2 some time tomorrow (well, technically today – it’s after midnight). I’ll also be announcing the contest winners in the next post…

Seeing double with Silverlotus‘ cute PocketAmi.

La Mañosa crocheted 2 stars and stitched them together to make it more rigid – clever!

Ellen made both poinsettia types and a Christmas pudding!

Jo-Ann made this pretty poinsettia.

This stylish green and white candy cane is from Nadine.

Barbara decorated her tree with little decorations from Hobby Lobby.

Mack made a variety of candy canes and modified my Mop Top Mascots pattern to make it more Christmassy.

Robin took my Elf one step further and added a Santa to her PocketAmi collection.

Alicia made a poinsettia table centrepiece.

Aren’t they all lovely? Believe it or not, these are not all of the entries – I still have plenty more pictures to process and upload once I’ve had a little sleep and put the turkey in the oven tomorrow morning 🙂

HAPPY CHRISTMAS everybody, and look out for part 2 of the CAL roundup in a few hours…
