Two original crochet patterns: Ivy and Bow, from the Christmas Decor range by June Gilbank.  

Each Christmas Decor set includes one leafy nature pattern and one decorative pattern. The nature patterns are all realistic life-sized designs, worked in as few pieces as possible to minimise finishing. The coordinating decorative patterns will finish your arrangements with pops of fun and stylish seasonal colour.

Ivy: You can use this pattern to make a single realistic ivy leaf, or a strand of ivy (all worked continuously, as a single piece). You can hang your ivy strands horizontally or vertically, or lay them out flat. Making two strands in two shades of green and twining them together looks even more realistic.

Bow: A beautifully-shaped realistic ribbon bow. It’s made from only 3 pieces and you’ll love the clever assembly process!

You’ll get so much value from these patterns - each one can be used in multiple ways and you’ll be using them in your holiday decor for years to come! 

  • Use individual components as Christmas tree ornaments, a pin/brooch/accessory, place settings, a personal touch on a -wrapped gift, etc. 
  • The components from each of the 4 pattern sets can be mixed-and-matched to assemble into a garland/swag, wreath, candle ring, etc.

Yarn: worsted weight yarn (the pictured samples use Patons Canadiana and Bernat Satin yarns) 

Hook: US E / 3.5mm

Size: 

  • Ivy Leaf: approx 2.25” (6cm) wide by 2” (5cm) tall, excluding stem.
  • Bow: approx. 4.25” (11cm) wide by 4” (10cm) tall, including tails.

Details:

  • All techniques used include tips, step-by-step photos, and/or links to my online tutorials.
  • All the flat pieces include charted stitch diagrams in addition to full written instructions, so you can follow the patterns in the way you find easiest.
