Make this Christmas Sweater Ornament crochet pattern, personalize it, and add to the festive spirit of your Christmas tree!
With Christmas right around the corner you may be looking for a little ornament that you can personalize for your Christmas tree and these little Christmas Sweater Ornaments would be perfect.
This year I wanted to make some fun Christmas ornaments that I could personalize for each member of my family.
These little Christmas Sweater ornaments are easy and quick to make and you can use up scraps of yarn that you may have lying around the house! I made them using a little bit of Heartland yarn by Lion Brand that I had lying around left over from another project.
To personalize them I glued a little one inch letter to the front of the sweater that was the same as their first initial. As an added touch of personalization I made sure to work the stripe in their favourite colours. I love how they turned out and how they look on my Christmas tree.
These little ornaments would be a great addition to your own tree but would also make a fun gift or as an item to sell at a craft fair during the holiday season.
