Mum's Christmas Banner by Val Cox

Mum's Christmas Banner

by Val Cox
This pattern is available for £4.00.

Little sweaters/ jumpers make really cute decorations, cards and banners/ bunting for all sorts of occasions. I made a banner for My Father in Law so I’ve had to produce one for Mother in Law too.

This pattern is part of an e-book. You can use the full alphabet provided in this pattern to change the MUM to MA, MOTHER, MOM etc. or to make any bespoke name banners for christmas weddings, birthdays and new baby gifts. Numbers are also included so you can add dates and there are also hearts and other motifs you can include on sweaters in your banner. The ebook includes lots of photos of items I’ve made to help give you some inspiration.

The basic sweater is very quick to knit and the ebook includes lots of different variations, including:
-Charts for full alphabet and numbers
-Charts for Christmas/ holiday pictures- i.e. Christmas tree, snowman, Rudolf, bauble, robin
-Instructions for Santa style sweater
-Charts for other pictures- i.e. owl, pirate skull, heart, steam train, Halloween pumpkin faces
-witch’s hat and spider to use for Halloween banner
-Instructions for 4 different styles of sleeves for the sweaters

Full Instructions, with lots of photos, are also included for making up the sweaters into the following items:
-hanging/ tree decorations
-vertical and horizontal banners/ bunting - like the ‘Mujm’ banner shown in the photographs
-5 different styles of greeting cards
