Crochet Christmas Candy Cane Cover

October 31, 2017 by Ashleigh

candy-cane-1

On my favorite social media ever, Pinterest, I saw these Crochet candy cane covers ages ago – before I ever started crocheting

And I loved em, I tell ya. LOVED EM!

After trying out that pattern, I revised quite a bit and even came up with my own less frilly version.

Both patterns are below and work up super quickly! Each one took me about 10 minutes.

They work perfectly for ornaments hung on the tree, tied to a gift, or given out at school or work!

Make one or two for your tree, and use the others as classroom gifts or something fun and handmade to add to a store bought gift!

Hope you’re loving this 2017 version of the Christmas Traditions CAL so far, if you’re new here – click HERE to see all the details on this Crochet-a-Long!

THE TRADITION: Make up a batch of candy cane covers and give them out to any group of people!

You could make them for neighbors and hang on their doorknobs, make one for all your kids’ classmates at school, your coworkers at the office, or attach them to your Christmas cards.

The possibilities are endless!

They are the perfect little inexpensive, handmade gift for a crowd.

Just don’t forget to make an extra for your tree! (Just remove the candy cane and replace each year)

    I just wanted to thank you for providing this Christmas CAL. I am having great fun doing everyone and getting complimented on my work. I’ve just been crocheting for a year now and have learned so much through this CAL and the Redheart CAL as well. Thank you again.

    This is so awesome. I’ve been looking for something I can make and sell for about .75 cents at a Christmas shop for kids. The money goes to the pta and this is perfect. Thank you for sharing your talent.
