What To Knit For Christmas Gifts

by Hannah Gilly

November 27, 2018

Have you ever felt that you're going 'round the houses,' a metaphorical walking 'round the block, when you're picking out patterns to knit? Sometime I feel this can happen more when I'm not just knitting for myself but for other people too? When you're knitting for Christmas, this can happen more often, as you want to get it right, yes? Those gifts will have a lot of time and love poured into each stitch, and you want to be gifting something that makes an impact, that your sis-in-law will wear, not hide in the back of her wardrobe as she wonders how many years she can leave it before donating to the local charity shop! I have five ideas for you today, for knitted gifts. All the suggestions I've got are pretty quick to knit, maybe they'll take you a weekend or a couple of evenings to prepare each gift.
I've also compiled a list of patterns, from the photos that you saw in the video, which will help you pick out some options faster. (sometimes fewer options, make the choice easier!) Patterns shown... Hats: Two-Tone Moss Beret Beginner's Square Button Hat Stripes Collection Beret Cowls: Super Chunky Lace Cowl Stripes Collection Cowl Fingerless Mitts:
