🎄 24 Days of Quickies Are Back — and Better Than Ever! (2025)
Hey, Besties! Marly here, and I’ve got some really good news: 24 Days of Quickies is making its grand return after a brief hiatus! That’s right — because you all asked (and asked, and asked), we’re back with 24 days of fast, fun, gift-worthy projects that are perfect for the holidays.
If you’re looking for Christmas gifts that knit and crochet in a hurry, this is your golden ticket. Whether you prefer to pick up your needles or hooks, I’ve got quickies lined up for you that are thoughtful, handmade, and totally doable.
Why the Return of 24 Days of Quickies Matters
After taking a break, I realized something important: handmade gifts mean the world. There’s something so special about giving — and receiving — something made by hand. Last year was a reset year, but now I’m more excited than ever to bring this event back, especially because:
- You told me you missed it. The messages, the comments, the emails — the demand was real.
- Quick, thoughtful gifts are gold. During the holiday rush, the idea of crafting something in a weekend (or less) is a lifesaver.
- Knit & crochet lovers unite. Whether you’re a veteran maker or just getting started, these 24 fast projects will make your gifting game strong.
What to Expect: 24 Days of Fast, Festive Projects
Each day, I’ll share two new crochet projects, one knit project, and a Holiday Armadillo BONUS — perfect for holiday giving, secret-santa exchanges, or just treating yourself (why not?). One of my absolute favorite parts of this entire event is collaborating with other AMAZING designers across the industry.
Truly, these creators bring you the hottest, freshest, most giftable knit and crochet patterns from every corner of our community. It’s such a joy to showcase their talents and introduce you to designers you’ll fall in love with. We’ll fill in the exact details for each day as we go, but you’ll get a fabulous mix of patterns, video tutorials, and tips for finishing fast.
Why These Quickies Make Amazing Christmas Gifts
- Handmade never goes out of style: Even in a world full of store-bought stuff, a knit or crochet gift stands out.
- Fast but thoughtful: These projects are small-scale, but they’re full of heart — and that’s what makes them meaningful.
- Stress-free gifting: No last-minute panic. You’ll have a plan and ideas you can actually execute.
- Affordable: Most of these require minimal yarn, so gifting stays budget-friendly.
How You Can Make the Most of 24 Days of Quickies
- Subscribe: Make sure you’re signed up for my email list so you don’t miss a single day.
- Gather your tools: Pull out those hooks, needles, and your go-to skeins of yarn — maybe even set up a designated gift-making station.
- Set a daily reminder: Treat this like a little holiday date with yourself — every single day from December 1st through December 24th I will be LIVE at 9am EST on my YouTube channel!
- Join the community: Share your progress in the Marly’s Minions Facebook group or on Instagram with the hashtag

A Peek at What’s Coming
Here’s how the 24 Days of Quickies will break down:
Every morning at 9am EST, the blog will be updated with the day’s new patterns and bonuses. You’ll have 24 hours to snag that day’s FREE PDFs — and then they’re GONE! When you hop over to each designer’s blog, you’ll be looking for the big red “Get your FREE PDF Here!” button to grab your goodies. Follow the directions from the designer and boom, FREE PDF!

🚨This is NOT a real button here! It’s only for demonstration; it’ll be real on the designer’s page🚨
Let’s Make This Holiday Season Extra Cozy
I can’t tell you how happy it makes me to bring 24 Days of Quickies back for another round. It’s one of my favorite traditions — and honestly, the thought of all of us stitching, hooking, and creating together warms my heart more than a pile of cinnamon-y candles ever could.
So, grab your yarn, warm up your hands, and let’s make this season one to remember. Besties, we’re in for a magical, handmade ride. 💚🧶
