The Santa’s Coming to Town Wall Hanging Crochet Pattern

Hey Guys!

I know, I know! It’s not Christmas anymore, sadly. But that won’t stop me from releasing one more Christmas pattern to round out the year. Introducing the Santa’s Coming To Town Wall Hanging crochet pattern.

This is by far the biggest wall hanging I have ever designed, which I am very much milking as a valid excuse for it’s tardiness, lol. To be fair I had the design finished and worked up by Christmas but the pattern hadn’t be written out yet. But fret not because although it wasn’t released in time for this year there is plenty of time to plan out projects for next years holiday season!

As always if you have any questions about the pattern please leave a comment below or dm me on Instagram @loveandstitchh. Also, don’t forget to tag me in all of your beautiful projects. Happy Crocheting!

Materials

*4.50 mm Crochet Hook

Weight 4 Worsted Weight Yarn (yarn I used is listed below)

*Yarn Needle

*Scissors

Wooden Branch or *Dowel Rod

*Hand Steamer (optional)

Yarn Choice

For most of my wall hanging patterns I prefer to use a thicker and tighter spun worsted weight yarn. I feel like it gives a lot more definition to the piece and details tend to stand out more. I really don’t focus too much on the texture of the yarn because I steam every single one of my wall hangings, which softens the piece and makes it more flexible and flowy. This is especially helpful for tighter crocheters. The brands I tend to gravitate the most towards are Red Heart Super Saver, Loops & Threads Impeccable and We Crochet Brava Worsted.

For this wall hanging I used the following yarn:

-Loops & Threads Impeccable in Smoke -approx. 280 yards

-Loops & Threads Impeccable in Black- approx. 50 yards

-Loops & Threads Impeccable in White- approx. 60 yards

-Loops & Threads Impeccable in Red Hot- approx. 120 yards

-Loops & Threads Impeccable in Claret- approx. 10 yards

-Loops & Threads Impeccable in Burgundy- approx. 20 yards

-Loops & Threads Impeccable in Guacamole- approx. 75 yards

-Loops & Threads Impeccable in Heather- approx. 120 yards

-Loops & Threads Impeccable in Classic Gray- approx. 10 yards

-Loops & Threads Impeccable in Soft Taupe- approx. 20 yards

How To Follow a Crochet Pixel Chart

If you need some help following a crochet pixel chart or need a refresher I have a video tutorial on my YouTube channel. Click Here or the image below to check it out.

Hanging the Project

Fasten off after Row 129 leaving a 5 foot tail.

To attach the project to a dowel rod or tree branch; using a yarn needle, weave the tail over the dowel/branch and back under into the 1st stitch on the top of the wall hanging.

Repeat for each stitch on the top of the wall hanging.

Knot off and weave in your ends.

To hang the project, drill 2 small holes on either side of the branch/dowel. Thread through both holes with cotton yarn and knot off both ends. Trim the excess yarn. (Feel free to use your preferred method of hanging the project)

Attaching the Fringe

To attach the fringe, grab 3 strands of yarn. With a crochet hook, push the hook through the far left foundation chain. Fold the 3 strands of yarn in half, looping the middle of the strands onto the crochet hook.
