What do knitting, crochet, punch needle and weaving have in common? YARN! If you have a yarn lover on your list, here are a few things to help them enjoy their craft even more! From creation to care and mending, we've got something they will love.
Yarn is a lovely gift if you have an idea of their colour and fibre preferences. If you're not sure, a yarn kit will give them some choice. They will often include a pattern but with a selection of colours, they can make any number of other projects.
Project bags and organizers are always useful to hold yarn, needles, hooks, stitch markers and everything else that comes along with these hobbies! You will find all kinds of styles, sizes and colours to choose from.
Stitch markers, darning needles, and snips are part of the "everything else" we're referring to. These small items make great stocking stuffers and the kind of thing you can never have too many of. Crafters are known to have a few kits stashed around the house!
Labels are a thoughtful gift for all kinds of makers. Whether it's to put on a handknit sweater or to let everyone know who crocheted an heirloom blanket, there is a cute label for that!
Let's not forget about wool care! After spending so much time creating a special piece, we want it to last a long time! A wool wash like Soak or Eucalan keeps clothing fresh and clean; regular detergents will actually break down animal fibres over time. A Gleener will expertly remove pills from well-worn sweaters, and a darning loom is a fun way to mend pesky holes.
