Lookbook #12 - CHRISTMAS WITH PETIT-PETITE
GET READY FOR CHRISTMAS
Christmas, a magical time in which you want to pay some extra attention to your loved ones - a cozy home and giving back. What says ‘sharing is caring’ more than handmade items? Manon (@ petit-petite_nl) has come up with Christmas home deco for you that doesn’t have the "standard" Christmas vibe but is original and screams festive!
You set your table with the Glamorous Table Pads and / or the Glamorous Table Runner. The fringes give the table runner that boho touch that will surprise your guests. Because Glamour is added to these designs, you also immediately give your table some "glam!". And the best part? Everything is made from our Epic, so it can be washed at 60 degrees after use. Then you can use it again next year, and the year after that - and the year after that.... And so on ;-)
Treat your guests like royalty by offering them a self-knitted napkin during Christmas dinner. The Favorite Napkins are exactly what you need. Place them on the plate with a nice napkin ring around it or choose to fold them so that you can put your most beautiful cutlery in it.
What makes your set table complete? Everlasting Eucalyptus! You can crochet this Eucalyptus with our Must-Have and it can be used in many different ways. A small branch as a decoration on a plate or a nice large branch as a center piece on the table. You can also attach the Eucalyptus to a ring and decorate your front door with it. All these possibilities are described in this pattern.
And did you know that there is also an (early!) Christmas present for you in this lookbook? You can find the pattern of the Must-Have Ornaments on our blog for free. Do you celebrate Christmas with us? Show your creations on socials with the hashtag #YACLookbookChristmas

MEET PETIT PETITE
Manon better known as Petit-Petite, started crocheting in 2013. She learned it by watching Youtube videos (sounds familiar right?). Her first project was a simple baby blanket, soon a stuffed animal followed and not long after she was unstoppable.
Manon shared her new projects on Instagram, where she can be found as @petit_petite_nl. Besides her fellow instagrammers, she also got approached by famous magazines and bloggers. That’s when her journey on designing patterns for others started.
Besides Instagram, she started blogging on her own website www.petit-petite.nl in 2016. To celebrate the launch of her new website she designed a pattern in collaboration with Yarn and Colors. When the chance came to elaborate this partnership she seized the opportunity. Manon has been our in-house designer and a proud member of our Yarn and Colors family for quite some years now. She designed a lot of popular designs from fashion to home deco. Which one is your favourite?
One of the results from this collaboration is in front of you. In this lookbook you can find five patterns that have been designed by Petit-Petite for Yarn and Colors.
