Last Minute Christmas Gifts to Knit
There's no doubt that handmade Christmas gifts are the most special ones. Your loved ones will definitely appreciate the time and effort you put in to knitting a homemade gift just for them. Wool products are soft, cozy and warm—making them perfect Christmas gifts. Keep all your lil’ sheep comfy on those cold winter nights! With Christmas just around the corner, we decided to put together a wool gift guide to give you some last minute inspiration.

They are knitted flat on two needles and then seamed along the sole and up the back of the bootie. Short rows mean no picking up stitches across the top of the foot! Using different sized yarn and/or needles will make different sized booties – larger needles and/or thicker yarn will make larger booties and smaller needles and/or thinner yarn will make smaller booties. If you’re wanting to whip up some other baby gifts, we have the 60 Baby Knits book in our online store or Toft kits and pattern books in our downtown Chelan store. |

A lovely way to commemorate the passing year or for holiday gifts to friends and family. This pattern is perfect for a beginner to jump in and tackle, or for an advanced knitter to work up in a jiffy. With multiple ways to make this mini mitten, use varying yarn weights to get differently-sized ornaments. The back of the mitten has been left in stockinette stitch and is a great place to embroider someone’s initials or the current calendar year. Personally, we love it as a thoughtful way to use as a gift topper.
