Christmas Tree Garland Knitting Pattern

Christmas Tree Garland Knitting Pattern- a beginner-friendly project with plenty of holiday cheer!

Garland is one of the most versatile holiday decorations. It can be draped over everything from stair railings to mantels to doorways. I figured a knit version was in order for this Christmas season! This Christmas Tree Garland Knitting Pattern is easy and fun to knit, plus you can even use it as a scrap-busting project if you’d like the trees to be different colors.

The Christmas trees are knit on single point needles and shaped with some easy increasing/decreasing. The chain for the garland is crochet and braided together. You can easily alter this pattern to make the garland as long or short as you’d like.

Happy knitting!
