The selection of seasonal sayings are:

JOY TO THE WORLD
PEACE ON EARTH
HOLLY JOLLY CHRISTMAS
WINTER WISHES
SNOWFLAKE KISSES!

There are 3 designs for sacks and placemats. You can personalize these (using the alphabet supplied) or swap out sayings. There are 4 different motifs. A tree, reindeer, bell and snowflake plus 2 interval designs.

The charts have MC for main colour and CC for contrast colour only. The MC is the background. There are no instructions for colour changing techniques. You can stick to only 2 colours or change the contrast colour as you want. For some sections using a 3rd colour is fun. For example, I made my tree green and my reindeer brown. This required the tapestry technique for changing between green and brown in the same row. I also used tapestry to make the bobbles on the tree a different colour to the MC colour. I used the intarsia technique to add a red nose for the reindeer. I do not give instructions on using a 3rd colour. You already need to know this or follow YouTube tutorials on intarsia or tapestry colour changing.

The sack weighs 250 g (approximately 125 g of each MC and CC). Using DK acrylic.
The stocking 155 g (approximately 45 g of yarn A for toe, heel and ribbing , 65 g of MC and 45 g of CC). Using DK acrylic.
The placemat 130 g (approximately 65 g of MC and 65 g CC). Using cotton:bamboo (125 m / 50 g)
