Looking for fun, holiday-inspired, free crochet patterns? Our Christmas in July event is kicking off so you’re in the right place!
Happy July! I’m so excited to be teaming up once again with Stephanie of Grace and Yarn for our 7th Annual Christmas in July event! Over the years, this has become a favorite event of ours and we can’t wait to share another collection of fun, festive crochet patterns with you!
Throughout the month of July, we’ll be releasing four brand-new, free crochet patterns, with one new design published every Tuesday. Stephanie and I will alternate weeks, giving you a new holiday-inspired project to look forward to each week. From festive home décor to cute holiday amigurumi and gift ideas, these patterns are designed to help you build your Christmas project list while there’s still plenty of time to enjoy the process.

Starting your holiday crocheting early means less stress later and more time to enjoy making handmade gifts and decorations throughout the season. Whether you’re crocheting for your home, your Christmas tree, or your gift list, these patterns are designed to help you tackle your holiday making early! You’ll love our quick and festive projects that’ll have you checking names off your gift list in no time!

Where can I find the patterns?
There will be 4 new crochet patterns released during our Christmas in July 2026 event this year. Two patterns from Stephanie and two patterns from myself. We will be sharing one new pattern each Tuesday for the month of July!
This page is your Christmas in July headquarters! As each pattern is released, I’ll update this post with links so you can easily find every project in one place. Be sure to bookmark this page or pin it for later, then check back each Tuesday throughout July to see what’s new!
You’ll always be able to access all four free patterns from this post, even after the event wraps up, so it’s a great one to bookmark or pin for later.
Below is the release schedule—titles and links will be updated as each new pattern goes live!
