I’ve been busy with my virtual knitting needles and crafted 4 free Christmas jumper patterns for your designs to wear this season. Each design is based on the popular ‘Fair Isle’ knitting style with lots of tiny red and white stitch-like graphics making up intricate festive patterns. The download contains patterns for both Illustrator & Photoshop, and includes vector swatches, seamless .PAT files and individual PNG images to make them usable in any Christmas themed project.
This free pack of Christmas jumper patterns contains 4 unique designs in the style of ‘Fair Isle’ knitting. Choose from two intricate pattern designs made from generic shapes, or more commercial Christmas style designs with trees and reindeers. All the patterns seamlessly repeat to fill an infinite area and are available in both vector or raster format.
Vector Christmas Jumper Patterns
Open the vector Christmas jumper patterns file in Adobe Illustrator to find the four individual pattern groups as vector graphics, along with ready made swatches that will apply the pattern as a fill to any object.
Photoshop Christmas Jumper Patterns
Install the .PAT version of the Christmas jumper patterns in Adobe Photoshop to have the 4 designs selectable as pattern fills. Use the Pattern Overlay layer style or the Fill tool to add these patterns to your designs.
Repeating PNG Christmas Jumper Patterns
Alternatively, use the basic PNG images of each Christmas jumper pattern manually for website backgrounds or to get your social profiles in the festive spirit!
Good news! I’ve updated the pattern to remove the accidental addition of Reindeer private parts.
I’ve left the original preview image above for your entertainment :-)
These are great, thank you! Am I also allowed to use them as part of designs to put on products for sale?
Sure Natalie, you can use these designs for commercial projects. :)
Thanks :)
what a beautiful job… thanks a lot!!!
I’m thrilled you think so, thanks!
Thanks for sharing Chris, these are gorgeous & puts me in a festive spirit!
It’s always good to spread some Christmas spirit. :)
These are awesome! Although, I must point out that the deer on the right is easily recognizable as the male…
LOL!
Believe me, that was an unfortunate accident!
On second thoughts, I guess it promotes gender equality within the reindeer species…
I was totally just looking for something like this! I love your emails. They make my life easier. Happy Holidays!
Glad I have what you were looking for. :D
I LOVE your stuff, Chris! Thanks for sharing. So much value packed into everything you do.
Cheers Jim! I really appreciate it.
WOW Chris:
These are GORGEOUS. I’ve NEVER seen anything like it.
Would love to learn how you created them. The possibilities are endless!
Thanks so much Chris!!!
Sharing with my Photoshop community. They’re going to go wild with this! I almost hate to share it and keep it all for myself! But I won’t! :)
Take care,
Roz Fruchtman

Hi Chris. These are so much fun. What font did you use?
I just had to look it up, the font is named LeanO. It’s one I picked up from a recent Design Cuts deal
Thanks for sharing ;) I’m going to use those beautiful patterns on Christmas e-cards to my friends :D
Thanks Joanna. :)
Thank you for the knitted files! I’ll try and incorporate one into a holiday layout.
No problem Bonnie! Hope the incorporating goes well.
Nice job, Chris. These look really fun, and I’m looking forward to playing with them on some holiday creative.
I’m glad you think so, have fun creating!
Thanks, I was asked to design a collgiate tshirt with a sweater pattern, these will work great to use as a starting point. Thanks for posting.
Cool! I’m happy to help. :D
thank you!!!!!
No problem. :)
these are absolutely stunning- thank you!
Thank you Jessica.
These are AMAZING.
Merci!
Thanks!!
wow, thanks so much! These are great!
No problem, I’m glad you like them.
Thanks for sharing. The accidental reindeer feature made me smile.
It wouldn’t be Christmas if there wasn’t a few mishaps every now and then. :D
Fun patterns – thanks so much for sharing them.
Thank you Chris for the Christmas pattern.
Anytime!
These are truly wonderful, Chris. Thank you very much! I was thinking that the accidental reindeer would have been great to use on a t-shirt as a fun joke to a Christmas sweater.
That’s a great idea!
Thanks so much for sharing these! They’re delightful!
Thanks Liv.
That’s awesome – thank you so much, Chris!
Thank you Sammy. :D
These are great! Thank you so much for sharing Christmas cheer:)
There’s nothing like spreading some Christmas cheer! :D
This came at a perfect time! You’ve done that twice now. I needed something for an invitation to a department holiday “meeting” (we aren’t allowed to call it a party, of course). And they want us to wear holiday gear (ie. horrible holiday sweaters – or jumpers if you are British). So this was perfect! I duplicated it and pasted it into my type headline and it looked great. Thanks for sharing! Happy Holidays to you!
I’m thrilled it’s helped you Pam! Thanks for the comment. :)
WOW It’s so so amazing!
Thank you!
Awesome work, as usual.
I’m Happy you think so Alessandra.
Great.
Can you tell me as I understand you have used Illustrator to make them ? Right ?
I think it is very possible to make it in Photoshop . This kind of effect – I haven`t work with this kind of effects but I think it is
easy to make it .
Thanks for sharing .
Сало уронили
thanks alot! they look great :)
didn’t even notice that about “private parts”
*giggle*
Thanks for sharing !
Hello Chris,
Is there an all red-pattern you forgot to add?
There is no easy way to add a text field.
There’s actually an easy way to mask off an area for some text: Draw a red rectangle then change the blending mode to Darken
thanks so much! super cool :)
Thanks for this! These are great!
Thank you so much, you saved our cover!!! —> https://www.facebook.com/zeroistanbul?fref=ts
