The Most Wonderful Time of the Year!

Handmade holiday inspiration

As Christmas-time rolls around, I’m a bit frantic with shows and shipping orders, but I also carve out time for spending with family and friends. It’s such a beautiful time of year!

My family has an Annual Cookie Baking Day and Santa Party (so much fun!) and I always make caramels for my friends and neighbors. And yes, I sneak a few for myself… that’s the maker’s privilege 😉

The cold weather has me thinking a lot about the functionality of my knitted garments. Last year, I finished a Guthrie Sweater by Caitlin Hunter and I’ve decided I’m going to steek it and make it into a cardigan. I hope to get that finished by the end of this month!

I’ve done a round-up of some fantastic December-inspired goodies that I thought you’d love to see. In addition to thinking warm thoughts, it’s also a great time of year to see if you can do some of your shopping with a small business. 

I am only able to live out my dream making stitch markers because of my amazing customers, and so when I’m shopping for a gift, I make sure to check out other makers, first! Here are a few gorgeous goodies:
