Have you seen our annual gift guides? We just love putting together gifts for everyone on our list - especially when we are able to combine handmade gifts with a few special finds to round things out. In this case, we put a few of our favorite things together for the Moms on our lists. We chose an easy-wearing poncho, a cute tote bag and an adorable print that speaks the eternal truth (Home is where Mom is) in addition to cozy boots and even a family gathering conversation stater game - perfect for the holidays! |

Well folks, we made it! Welcome to our very last installment in our free pattern series: Twelve Weeks of Gifting. The grand finale and proverbial icing on the cake is our very favorite, ever popular Dish Towel Set pattern! So simple and wonderfully giftable, this is a great pattern for any knitter. I love seeing these projects knit up, tied with a pretty ribbon and gifted with a piece of handmade soap for a perfect mother's gift, birthday or baby shower gift. Plus, this pattern calls for Dishie, a super-rugged cotton yarn perfect for cleaning up tough messes or super exfoliation! Make sure to pop over and pick up your copy of the Dish Towel Set through Tuesday and get crafting in the last few days before Christmas. |
