A Week to Go: Last-Minute Handmade Gifts

With just a week left before Christmas—and Hanukkah underway and the winter solstice approaching—many of us are taking stock of the time we actually have and the projects that still feel possible. These are the gifts made in the final stretch: small enough to finish, simple enough to enjoy, and thoughtful enough to matter.


Below is a curated collection of quick makes from my own pattern library and from fellow designer SĂśnna of Wool & Wyrd. Each is designed to be completed in an evening or two, using yarn you already have on hand. These projects fit neatly into this busy, celebratory week.


Use the coupon code SHINYBRIGHT (valid through December 25) for special thank-you discounts from each of us, to help make your last-minute making a little easier.


And don't forget to sign up for our newsletters to stay connected and hear about new releases, updates, and discounts from each of us!


If you’re still making in these final days, let it be gentle. Let it be something made with care rather than pressure. Choose what feels doable, enjoy the making, and let the rest go.


With love, yarn, and warm holiday wishes,

Becca
