Quick gifts You Can Make this Weekend

I love having a go-to list of quickly made projects.  I usually keep a bundle of projects in my Ravelry account so I can quickly access ideas when I need them.  

Hats are at the very top of my list.  I have a bin of hats so I can match them both to fit the weather and to pair with my outfit.  Knitted Wit has a bulky yarn that is everything wonderful about Knitted With but just bulky.

Celtic Winters Slouchy Hat by Megan Meyers

Mittens are of course at the top of my quick gift list.  You cannot go wrong with Chibi Paka because it is so soft combining alpaca with superwash wool. Our mitten suggestions for both knit and crochet projects use a few colors so you can have fun picking your combination.

If you are looking for mittens that aren't too thick you can choose a color of Handspun Hope DK or Dream in Color Classy for these knitted mittens.  For the crocheted set we are suggesting Peace Fleece and don't forget that the more Peace Fleece is worn and loved the more it softens up.

Riley Knit-Look Mittens by Adriana M

A matched set of hat and mitts make a great gift.  Mitchell Bulky is new yarn for us and it is gorgeous.  We've selected this matching hat and mitts to knit and a crocheted hat for quick projects.

 Rising Ridges Beanie by Cassie Reed-Chavez

I always find it so comforting to slip into a pair of cozy slippers when the weather turns cold.  Dream in Color Classy is one of my favorite yarns both for it's feel and for the beautiful color choices.

Moroccan Style Slippers by Churchmouse Teas and Yarns

The 5th idea are these adorable bear hats that can either be knit or crocheted.  Created with bulky Chibi Paka yarn.  This yarn not only knits up quickly but is so soft for the little ones in your life.
