Stylecraft 12 Days of Christmas CAL Yarn Pack – Traditional Colourway by Helen Smith

Bring the magic of Christmas to your crochet with the 12 Days of Christmas Crochet Along, designed by Helen Smith of EmKat Crochet for Stylecraft. The Traditional colourway combines classic greens, gold tones and festive reds for a timeless Christmas blanket.

Worked in Stylecraft Special DK, the design features 12 picture squares inspired by the much-loved Christmas song, from a partridge in a pear tree to twelve drummers drumming. Tapestry and intarsia crochet bring each motif to life, before the squares are joined and finished with a colourful border.
