    Celebrate Christmases past with our enchanting new knitalong! Featuring designs from top toymakers Sachiyo Ishii, Steffi Hochfellner and Sarah Louise Read, this collection uses deeper tones for a wonderfully classic feel. There are seven parts to choose from, starting here with the main man, Santa and some enticing looking presents. Both are designed by Sachiyo Ishii.

    Vintage Christmas Knitalong Part 2

    We all know that Santa wouldn’t get much done without the help of the marvellous Mrs Claus, so here she is, designed by Sachiyo Ishii, and complete with a neat little apron. She’s just back from baking the most enormous Christmas pudding. This sweet treat has been designed by Sarah Louise Read.

    Vintage Christmas Knitalong Part 3

    Every day’s a snow day for this cute pair of polar bears! Don’t worry though, they’re perfectly snug in those cosy scarves. The heads and bodies are worked in one piece then stuffed and shaped by folding the heads down and securing in place with a few stitches. You can add extra shape to the heads by giving the thread a tug when you attach the eyes.

    Vintage Christmas Knitalong Part 4

    Designed by Sachiyo Ishii and Steffi Hochfellner, these cute and colourful Christmas trees are quick to knit and make a wonderful addition to any table setting. You can add a star or a pom-pom to the top or opt for one of each like we’ve done here.

    Vintage Christmas Knitalong Part 5

    We know penguins come from the southern hemisphere rather than the North Pole but these snow lovers are just so adorable that we just couldn’t resist including them in this collection. They’re pretty straightforward to knit but you will be working a bit of intarsia colourwork for their cream tummies. Give the yarns a twist when you change colour to avoid any accidental holes.

    Vintage Christmas Knitalong Part 6

    We’re bonkers about gonks right now and Sachiyo Ishii’s quick-knit fellow is a real beaut: just look at his luxurious beard! Sarah Louise Read has designed a classic candy cane and we’ve opted for a green and cream combo for a bit of a twist. Use pipe cleaners to create the perfect candy cane curve. These would make lovely present toppers or tree decorations, just add a hanging loop.

    Vintage Christmas Knitalong Part 7

    Well done for making it to the final part of this fab and festive KAL. We’re finishing off with a pretty little angel and a golden star, both designed by Sachiyo Ishii. Take time when adding the angel’s hair to get a nice, neat ‘do’. The star is worked all in one piece so it won’t look like a star-shape until you’ve finished making up. Just trust in the knitting magic!
