What skill level do I need?
All projects are Easy/Basic. If you know how to chain/single crochet or knit/purl—or want simple no-knit crafts—you’re set.
What tools/yarn do I need?
Small amounts of yarn in various colors, a US D/3 (3.25 mm) hook, US 0 (2.0 mm) needles, tapestry/embroidery needles, and scissors. For no-knit crafts, use a cardboard tube and optionally a pom-pom maker.

Can I sell items made from these patterns?
No. The patterns are for personal use only and may not be used for commercial resale.
Any blocking or finishing tips?
Light blocking improves the look of knit pieces (e.g., bottle scarf, holly leaves). Trim pom-poms after fluffing; add hanging loops to ornaments as desired.
