Every year, I try to create a winter holiday pattern with the spirit of Christmas in it. However, I also want to create a pattern that can be used before and after the period of Christmas, more like a winter theme. And this year, I have made a garland to decorate your home. My Northern Tiles pattern inspires the garland – and, therefore, also contains little motifs in the Northern Light colors. The motifs hold a snowflake motif and are decorated with shiny buttons and pearls to give it a more festive feeling. It is a fun little project to create when you have less time and want some nice decoration for your home.

Yarn Requirements:
I used some scraps for this pattern from many Scheepjes Catona balls I had as leftovers. The amounts needed for one motif are not that much, so this is a perfect pattern for using some scraps. Scheepjes Catona comes in balls of 10,25 and 50 grams. The 50-gram balls have a length of 125 meters and consist of 100% mercerized cotton.
The amounts needed for one motif – which exists out of 2 sides, are:

Color A: 15 grams / 38 meters (including combining sides and sewing button on it)
Color B, C, and D: 6 grams / 15 meters.

If you like to see the exact colors I picked for my version of this pattern, please see my website for all details.

Other materials needed:
For each motif, you will need two buttons in size “24”. This can be any button and doesn’t need a specific type. As I made seven motifs, I used 14 buttons in total. To finish the garland, I used a pearl bead size “12” between each motif and at the end and the beginning of the garland. So, I used a total of 8 pearl beads as well. And, of course, a sewing needle is also needed.
I used some fiberfill to fill up the motifs a bit. About 50 grams of fiberfill is enough for seven motifs as they don’t need to be filled up very tight

Crochet hook: 2.5mm

Size: A finished side or completed motif will measure 8-9 cm in diameter/ 3-3.5 inches.

The total garment will measure approx—100 cm in length/ 25 inches in length measured from beginning to end.

All stitches used in this pattern are regular crochet stitches. It is a small project which perfectly works up between different jobs.

The pattern is available as a digital purchase. After purchase, you receive a PDF download file. The pattern is available in English (US) and Dutch.
