24 Quick Knit and Crochet Projects for Gifts
You need 24 quick knit and crochet projects for gifts this holiday season? Not a problem, join Marly Bird and friends for 24 Days of Quickies! You will find the perfect quick knit and quick crochet projects right here over the next 24 days.
Here we are Thanksgiving week and it is now crunch time for holiday planning and gift making. As a craft lover I am sure that we all have these grand intentions of making handmade gifts for everyone that we know. My list is a mile long.
But, I also know that time has a way of slipping by and before I know it Christmas is here and I still have the toe of a sock to knit or a crochet cowl to make. Rather than stress about getting the perfect knit gift or the best crochet gift made in time for whichever holiday you celebrate, I am here to help!
With the help of my wonderful assistant, Katelyn, we have pulled together 24 of my favorite designer friends to help you out! Join us in the 24 Days of Quickies with Marly Bird and Friends. A Collection of quick knit gifts and crochet gift.

24 Quick Knit and Crochet Projects
Rather than stressing over making gifts for the holidays enjoy the process and make something fun. Each day over the next 24 days I will take you to a new designer and their super quick project.
Each project in this designer hop has been designed to be able to complete in one day! You heard me right, one day! Great for last minute gifts you forgot about, or when your cousin’s, sister’s, boyfriend’s friend decides that they are coming to dinner too! Pick one of these 24 projects and have it ready in time!

Thank you for the matching Mittens and Hat. It is such a cute set.
I missed the boot toppers, but when I saw the mitts I wanted the hat immediately! Thank you soooo much for the armadillo!!
This is so much fun!! Thank you Marly and all the wonderful designers! Can’t wait til tomorrow!
for some reason I am not able to access the pattern for the 8th. it keeps saying not found. perhaps there is a typo?
Marly you are terrific, this event is making my holiday season happier.I am a single mom with my dad having cancer and my son is struggling in school. I look froward to your happy posts. You are beautiful and “Real.” I am a better knitter than crochet artist but I am learning from you.
So much fun! Thank you Marly and guest designers for sharing. Eagerly looking forward to the next quickie!
Thank you, Marly, for taking the time to do the videos every day, adding the patterns every day, and the Armadillo. Every day! It’s a lot of work, I’m certain, & you must be busy with other work & your life. It’s really special that you devote so much time to your internet family as well. You’re great!
Thanks so much for the kind note. It is all worth it to hear the appreciation from you!!
I made the Christmas garland. Thank you I love it!
I understand that the coupon code expires each day but is there still a way to access the link to the armadillo patterns if we miss them on their day? Thanks for all the work your putting into the 24 days of quickies.
You sure can!!! Here is the link to get the pattern. https://marlybird.com/holiday-armadillo-amigurumi-pattern/
Today I cannot get the free scarf pattern. Where it says click here is not doing anything.
How do we download Elena’s two tone chunky wave scarf for Dec. 15th?
For some reason the link to the December 15th pattern does not work.
I’ve eyeballed all the things… I’m gonna make one of those beaded cuff bracelets soon!
I tried Meghan blog
how do I get the pattern
Hi Marly – I paid for the super simple two ball shawl but didn’t get prompted for the code??
Please leave your armadillo links up, I know they are no longer free but it will make it easy to find them in the future.
the code for todays (Dec 21) freebie is not working 🙁
The pattern for December 24th from the Crochet Crowd, the link which says download print save, takes me to a YouTube video for rows on a mandala blanket. I’m assuming it should be a pdf file? Or that it shouldn’t be posted until tomorrow? Not sure the issue but I thought I’d bring it to light. Thank you for the wonderful event and Merry Christmas/Happy Holidays!
There doesn’t seem to be a way to download a .pdf for day 23 Easy Peasy Lemon Squeezy Headband?
this has been so cool!! Thanks very much for the free patterns, so exciting to have so man to choose from… much appreciation!
Merry Christmas, Marly!
I love all these patterns! I just wanted to ask about the expiration time on the free patterns. For your first Holiday Armadillo pattern (the fingerless mitts), I tried to get the free PDF, but it said that the link hand expired. I worked late that day and it was around 11:15 p.m. Chicago time. Just a matter of curiosity!
I hope you and your family have a very Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year!
