As a anyone who have bought my books, Mini Christmas Knits, Merry Christmas Sweaters or Mini Knitted Christmas know, I am a bit of a fan of the Festive season!

With this garland I have created something which is not just limited to Christmas, but can be displayed throughout the Winter.

The pattern includes a pine cone, mistletoe, holly leaf, snowflake, star and toadstool

Each little item is strung on a knitted garland using buttons. I found some lovely star shaped buttons but even some odd buttons would look great. You can make the garland as long, or as short, as you like and add more decorations to it.

The patterns are all knitted using 3mm knitting needles and double knitting yarn and include a few popular techniques, which are fully explained.
