Perfect for tubes of sweets.
I knit the Santa and elf cracker for a charity fair. Very easy and quick to knit. I am now going to knit some more for grandkids.
DK Knitted Christmas Decoration large Sweet Tube Drawstring covers - Set of Three Christmas Knitting Patterns, made the perfect size for a large 120g(ish) tube of treats, with a drawstring top & bottom to close.
Please note - due to either small knitted pieces/felt shapes, strings, or the use of plastic eyes/buttons, these are not suitable for children under 3yrs old.
Perfect for a beginner, simple easy to follow pattern. I have used DK Dollymix throughout in 25g balls, these are excellent value at around just £1 in most stores, money-savvy homemade gifts, what's not to love?!
They can hang on a tree or be used as a stocking filler / party favour.
These cuties make a great gift or charity knit. They are easily worked over a few evenings or a lazy Sunday using very little yarn. Make these super little Bags for a unique Christmas gift.
Materials: 3mm needles, yarn needle DK coloured yarn for all as required (see list below) Oddments of yarn for baubles

I've only done the santa one so far, but it was easy to follow and looked very effective when finished
The pattern was easy to follow although needs reading carefully when working out how many rows to do in each section. Make sure that the tube of sweets is not too big as I had to stretch the finished piece of knitting to make it fit the length of the tube.
I’m very happy the way they have knitted up can’t wait to give them a way as presents Very easy to knit up I have made six so far and still enjoying doing them
Very easy pattern to follow. It went down well with friends and family and so far I have made five.
Still knitting these for grandchildren for Christmas. Easy to follow pattern.
Good pattern, easy to follow and good results.
Knitted one full size but going to adapt pattern for smaller items to have on table at Christmas.
Easy pattern to follow.
