Happy December 1st! Looking for some gift ideas for a fellow knitter? Or maybe you want to just email a link to this page to your family and friends, and let them know what you want this year.
Here are my top 20+ picks for knitterly gifts this year, at every price point!
(a note on the items: I chose all the items on this page, some of which are from the shops of KB sponsors over there on the right, and others who have no idea they are even on this page or that I even like their stuff. Surprises abound! All items are available to purchase online, therefore all items will have additional charge for shipping)
A special gift- you’re probably besties or related: $75-$45
A gift bundle for a fledgling designer, a heavy duty tote with a knitting line design, Some great kits- one for a knitted plaid hat and another for a gorgeous pair of mittens- that have everything needed to get started on a knit today; a fabulously sheepy sweater that Mindy Kaling wore on The Mindy Project, or a hand loom to try something new. Who wouldn’t love to unwrap gifts like these?!
Top Right: Bookhou Bucket Tote, $60
Middle Left: Knitted Plaid Nevermind Hat Kit, $62.63
Middle Right: Black Sheep Blue Sweater, $58.7s
Bottom Left: Maple Hand Loom Kit, $49.88

Hooray for gifts! $44-$25
Here are some ideas for a knitter who knows their stuff- amazing gradient handwarmer kit (yarn and pattern included) that keeps their fingers free for yet more knitting, a great project bag that keeps yarn organized while knitting 2 at a time socks/ stripes, colourwork, or just alternating skeins when using hand dyed yarn on a bigger project. What about helping a special someone have warm toes with a super cozy slipper sock kit (yarn, roving, and pattern included)? Maybe their circular needles are a crazy octopus jumble and need some organization!
