5 Quick Knitting Patterns That Make Great Christmas Gifts

written by Emily
5 Quick Holiday Knits

If you are like me, you wait until the last possible minute to think of something fun to make for family and friends. I can’t very well start a blanket that will take me a month to knit with just weeks to go before the Holidays. I’ve got to think smaller.

5 Quick Holiday Knits

Pin Me! 🙂

 

Here are 5 great knitting projects I’ve found that would make amazing handmade holiday gifts. Impress your friends with your mad knitting skillz on these quick & easy patterns!

The GAPtastic Cowl! I’ve made a couple of these. They knit up quickly and look just as nice as the “real” GAP scarves. Even better, in my opinion!

Doesn’t my iPhone look all cozy & warm?!

If my phone is warm and cozy, shouldn’t my coffee get the same privilege? A great way to use up stash yarn or play with some funky colors!

This knit Octopus that is begging me to make him for Brady for Christmas. I don’t know what’s cuter, the octopus or the little boy modeling it!

Emily is a mom to three very active boys. Her youngest is autistic so she is passionate about advocating for children and families on the spectrum. She attends more concerts than is humanly possible and takes some pretty amazingly blurry photos of said shows to prove she was there. Also, #hashtags are her favorite. #totes #noreally

Hi Emily – I was searching the web Christmas Tree Ornament that represents knitting and came across your 5 Quick Knitting Patterns. I then read your description of yourself and I am also a mum to 3 boys – a 10 year old and 7 year old identical twins – one of twins has autism. I live in Australia.

I used to love to knit but I had to stop because of pain in my hands. I miss it.
