It's time to start thinking about what gifts you are going to make for family and friends. Does Mom need a new pair of fingerless mitts? Maybe Dad or Husband needs a new hat to stay warm while working on snow removal. Warm socks would find a welcome home with anyone on your gift list. Does someone need an afghan in a drafty house? Classes that teach the techniques for these ideas and more are going to be starting up in August.
What is your knitting or crocheting gift list looking like? Are you doing anything for coworkers? Do you create for charity? Let the me know in a comment.
Are there techniques you would like to learn that I have not offered? Let me know of interests you have. I'm always interested in what others might want to learn.
Do you have a wish to see matching hand crafted stockings to hang by your fireplace? A Granny pentagon or an elongated sock design can both help fulfill this wish.
How about a knit tree skirt? Crocheted snowflakes or icicles? A nice crocheted popcorn garland to wrap around the tree?
Have you had a desire to knit a sweater for a gift? Pattern ideas will be coming in the future. Check with yarn companies for patterns for a start.
