Make this year's Christmas jumper yourself

Creative Christmas projects

Make a Christmas jumper that's completely your own

There is something very special about a homemade Christmas jumper. For yourself, your partner or the little ones in the family. Gather your yarn, fabric, glitter and Christmas decorations, and let your imagination run free.

It can be a little silly, a little cosy and very personal. Put on some Christmas music, get your creative supplies out and explore the ideas on this page. When it comes to Christmas jumpers, almost anything goes.

How to make your own Christmas jumper

Sew your own sweatshirt in a lovely Christmas colour, for example in sweatshirt fabric or jersey, and use it as the starting point for your very own Christmas jumper. Once your jumper is ready, the fun begins. Now it's time to decorate.

Upcycle an old jumper

Of course, you can also skip the sewing and find an old sweatshirt or jumper in your wardrobe. With a few Christmas decorations, you can quickly give it a new lease of life and perhaps make it a firm favourite every December.

Decorate your Christmas jumper

Once you have your jumper, it's time to start decorating. We have all kinds of sewing accessories and craft supplies, which can give any jumper a festive feel! For example, cut small Christmas motifs from felt or fabric scraps and sew them directly onto the jumper. 

Fabric paint and iron-on fabric

You can also give your jumper a festive touch with fabric paint or iron-on fabric. Create reindeer, snowmen or other Christmas motifs, for example, and finish with sequins, pompoms or bells if it needs a little something extra.
