Holiday Gift Card Holder

Jazz up that boring gift card with this festive and colorful Holiday Gift Card Holder. Choose between an Elf or Santa holder to delight your family.

Skill Level: Beginner

The pattern is written in U.S. crochet terms, complete with clear instructions, pictures, and a full video tutorial to help you along the way. Holiday Gift Card Holder is crocheted in continuous spirals without joining the rounds.  I suggest using a stitch marker or different color yarn to keep track of each round. Holiday Gift Card Holder is crocheted in worsted weight yarn and is approximately 3.5 inches tall, 2.5 inches wide and fits standard gift cards. Be aware that size may vary depending on the yarn and hook size used.
