Let’s get holiday ready with this year’s Giftstravaganza Blog Hop! These season-of-joy centered patterns come under themes so you can choose exactly what you want to make for who. While you’re working on your projects, you can chat with other crocheters to see how they’re getting on, and win some great prizes at the end of the event. That’s not all — you’ll get the FREE PDF download for the pattern of the day and if you miss one, don’t worry because these patterns will remain forever free on the designer’s blog!

How the 2025 Giftstravaganza Blog Hop Works
From November 1st to 30th, a new crochet holiday gift idea will be released each day under a theme which helps you decide the right gift for each recipient. I’ve partnered with fabulous crochet bloggers to bring you these thirty free patterns. They’re perfect as gifts for yourself, loved ones, children, grandchildren, neighbors and coworkers, your crochet circle, or anyone in between! You can also use whatever yarn you already have because these patterns only require 1-3 skeins each.
Every week has a theme:
- Week 1 (November 1-7): Gifts for Home
- Week 2 (November 8-14): Gifts for Women
- Week 3 (November 15-21): Gifts for Babies, Kids, and Teens
- Week 4 (November 22-28): Gifts for Anyone
- Week 5 (November 29-November 30): Last-Minute Gifts
All the patterns in this blog hop are forever free on the blog of each designer. But for each pattern, you can also get a coupon code valid for 24 hours to download that day’s featured pattern as a PDF for free.
We’ve also partnered with some of our favorite companies to get some great prizes for you. Scroll down to get more details on prizes from GlassEyesOnline, KnitPal, Knitter’s Relief Balm, LennyMudPottery, MBT Creates, and Unicorn and to enter the giveaway for your chance to win one of 6 prizes by Sunday, December 7, 2025 at 11:59 pm Eastern.
