This is too late for Valentin’s Day this year, but not too late to make for yourself, a heart-addicted friend, or as an anniversary gift. I simply fell in love with it the first time I laid eyes on it. In case you think the design might be above your skill level, have no fear. There is a great picture tutorial to accompany the free pattern. Check it out here .
If you love adding little handmade touches to your Christmas decorating, this Christmas Poinsettia Candle Cozy from CraftBits is such a pretty project. It is festive, eye-catching, and just the sort of small crochet make that can add a lovely pop of holiday color to a table, shelf, or mantel.
What I really like about this pattern is that it feels special without being overwhelming. It is a sweet seasonal project for dressing up battery tea lights, and the poinsettia design gives it that classic Christmas look that never gets old. It would be gorgeous as part of a holiday centerpiece or made up in a few sets for decorating around the house.
You might have seen this one featured on Crochet.CraftGossip before, and it is easy to see why it is worth another look. It is cheerful, decorative, and a lovely way to bring a little crochet into your Christmas styling without taking on a huge project.
If you are in the mood for a small festive make, this one is definitely a pretty pick.

I love it. Will make it soon. THANKS
This scarf is totally amazing. Somehow, although I’m a true Threadie, the idea of a thread scarf had never occurred to me! Well, it does now!
