GG’s Favorite Things List 2016

 

Soooooo….if you have knitters or crocheters in your life and you have had this thought

“What do you get a knitter/crocheter for a Christmas gift?” Then look no further. My favorite things list is sure to solve the problem.

If you missed last years list you can find it here and all of those things are still my favorites 😍 so I am adding some new things to it ok?

1. Project bags 👀 before you judge, look…I am in love with my Afrocentric project bag from  EboniePearl a shop on ETSY. This bag screams me when I saw it I HAD to have it. Then remember the Bribags


2. Anything from MyPrettyBrownDoll you guys have seen my keychain and my latest baby Roxie. So if you are a lover of all things handmade check Yolanda out


3. Knitting themed mugs. You know I have a ton, I gifted myself the stockinette stitch mug from CreativewithClay on ETSY.I know y’all seen my Knitting is BAE cup from TLYarnCrafts, another of my favs on ETSY, she also has Crochet is BAE, love it!!


AND of course you have my mugs, click the picture for details and thanks 😋 or any of the GGmadeit apparel, you can find it on the shop tab above

4. Pattern books, there are so many out there it right here and now I am crushing on Jen Geigley’s new book EVERYDAY AND I must mention WEEKEND too. Jen delivered not one but two books with stylish, easy to knit pieces you will love.


5. You all know my absolute favorite gift is yarn, for me Orange yarn 😂. This gift can be tricky, so unless you know the person extremely well I would stick with gift cards from a local yarn store (Do Ewe Knit, Knit-a-Bit) <—NJ favorites, however, if your friend is in Florida a card from Four Purls or Stash would be perfect? Hell whereever they are any online yarn store will work. Below is a list that offers gift certificates online just click and happy shopping.


6. Notions and gadgets. What is That? Is that your question? Well it’s those cute things that make knitting easier. Like the 3 tiered Ablet 😍 from KnittingAbacus.  Love this thing,  Yea I do! Click the picture and find your favorite color

Can we talk about The Loome? Oh my goodness I saw it and had to have it! I was lucky enough to meet the owner at the Renegade craft show last weekend. I ran home and made a pom immediately! LOL! AND you can do so many other things..try it! Click the picture for a cute affordable kit.

6. Knitting themed jewelry, you heard me..a bracelet that says YarnHo or Diva or whatever. LOL! This beauty can be found in the CatDesignz  ETSY shop

7. Specialty stitch markers, like this Jon Snow set from MekaMika. I mean who doesn’t love Game of Thrones

  1. Hi !
    Someone who knits that looks like me! I found you tonite while on the internet and can’t remember where or how but so glad I have! I just finished watching some of your YT videos and I am so inspired. I am learning to knit via YT and the internet and guess what? My first gift to myself during my knitting journey is 2 WATG knit kits! I can’t wait to get started, I am just getting my skills up to par some more before I begin. If you any advice or words of wisdom for a beginner like me – I would appreciate it! Take Care

    1. Hello!

      let me apologize for the delayed response, your message went to spam for some reason, but I gotcha now! Yes use Youtube it’s the best, especially if you are a visual learner. I go back there often. If you are on Facebook come on over to the page GGmadeit, that is where all the fun happens. Thanks for reading and commenting! Happy Holidays!
