great little gifts to knit

Thursday, September 19, 2013

For the month of September this gem has been touring around.  I'm so happy to be part of the tour.
This is truly a must have for your library.  I love SO many of the projects.  Such awesome ideas for the upcoming holidays or any time you want to celebrate a person (even YOU)!  A book to expand your creativity while embracing the gift of giving.  A win, win for everyone. 
Jean Moss didn't leave out a single detail.  The book has a technique and stitch section which explains both in depth.  Each project is given a skill level and the time it takes to knit.  (SO helpful!) 
I love how the book is divided into 4 gift categories:  Baby, Hers, His and Home. 
Baby is filled with booties, hats, mittens, cocoons, a blanket and a toddler jacket, not to mention those adorable beanbags above.  
Hers is filled with purses, fingerless gloves, a shrug, leg warmers, a turban, hat, baret, zebra mittens, a stole, a shawlette and a backpack.  
His offers socks, a hat, a head wrap, a guitar strap, a belt, a scarf, and a smart cover phone.
And for the Home, there are cushion covers, seat covers, place mats, napkin rings, a doggie jacket, tea cozies, and a celebratory toran.

The entire fun and beautiful project gallery is here.

If interested in a copy of great little gifts to knit, please leave me a comment between now and Tuesday the 24th, 5pm EST and the random number generator will choose a name.
