I watched the Christmas special, looking forward to the drama and also looking for the knitted garments everyone wears but this one was different. There were a few knitted garments and a trusty teapot cosy but most of the fashion items were crocheted this time!
Reggie is a popular character who always has fabulous knitted jumpers. He is portrayed by Daniel Laurie. Daniel had a different Christmas jumper that he showed everyone on his twitter feed every day in December. He really gets into the spirit of Christmas.
Later on, when everyone is celebrating Christmas, the Turner children are all wearing adorable crocheted Christmas jumpers with a vibrant Christmas tree, while, Collette, the secret daughter of Nancy is wearing a crochet striped cardigan.
I'm used to looking for the fabulous vintage knits so seeing so many crochet patterns in this episode was a pleasant surprise.
I can't find crochet patterns online for these but the waistcoat, hats and gloves should be easy to figure out. I'd really like the patterns for the Christmas jumpers though. I really think there should be a Call the Midwife knitting and crochet book with the patterns. Maybe it is something I shall do in the New Year!
