Christmas Crochet Cups

It’s Christmas in July! You know how much I love crocheting for Christmas and I always like to have at least one Christmas in July pattern for you guys to get on your hooks before the holiday hustle and bustle. With the popularity of the crochet cups (first the bunny cup and then the bear cup) I thought this would be the perfect project to dress up with a little Christmas theme! I created my favorite duo: the Snowman Cup and the Gingerbread Cup to kick off this Christmas Cup collection with more designs being added during the month of July!

Stuff these with gift cards, Christmas treats, candy canes, and more! It’s such a great gift for teachers, family, friends, and neighbors and it won’t take you long to crochet a bunch of them.

Here is a quick video tutorial if you need one! All patterns for embellishments are in the patterns below.

Materials:
– Bernat Super Value in Red and White for the Snowman and Topaz and White for the Gingerbread Man
Shop Bernat Super Value yarn on Yarnspirations.com
You will need to use a double strand of yarn while crocheting so it might help to buy two skeins of each color or separate one skein into two balls before you begin crocheting.
– Size K Crochet Hook
– Tapestry Needle
– Black Safety Eyes or Black Buttons for the eyes, Two Red Buttons for the Gingerbread cheeks, Carrot Nose (purchased at JOANNs), and any other cute embellishments you want to add like a little holly berry button for the snowman!

Snowman Face Buttons –> PURCHASE HERE AT JOANN CRAFT STORE

Finished Size: Approximately 4 inches wide (3 inches wide at bottom) and 3.5 inches tall

Use a double strand of yarn when crocheting (two strands held together). This creates the sturdiness of the cup.

  14. Hi there, my name is Denielle and I’m new to your channel, but I really love these cups you make. I work with children alot and the disabled so I thought these would be the perfect little gifts for holidays and/or birthdays. Can you do a video and post a pettern for some that could be used for some other holidays or birthdays? I would like to see if you could maybe do some ideas to share with me. My ideas I’m looking for are: Halloween like a pumpkin, ghost, or frankeinstine (sorry about my spelling,lol), Thanksgiving like a turkey, American flag for 4th of July, and maybe a cupcake one for birthdays?

  20. These cups are adorable. Wanted to share with you ideas you might like that I am doing from your creation. I have added the last row on Santa with white and it makes it a Wow!

    For Snowman I always use the month of January to decorate with Snowmen and blue and of course white has always been the colors I changed the red to blue and put a Snowflake at top in place of Holly . When I embroidered the Red Work patter on the Snow people I did it all in blue–just can’t get red in my mind for snow.
    Also I have crocheted Pumpkins and put a face on them to put surprises in for children.

    My imagination runs wild with these cups. Have never thought about such a simple project that can be so creative. Thank you for sharing and I just wanted to share my thoughts with you.

  29. I like this article because it is very helpful in understanding the manual controls of photography. It makes things easier for me when I want to take pictures but don’t know how to set up a particular control setting on my camera. The best part about this guide is that you can find out all the different types of settings that are available with your iPhone or iPad Camera app, so no matter what type of device you have, there will be something useful inside! This helps make our photography experience much more enjoyable and simple than ever before.
