Quick Gift Knits

Not only can these soft little bowls be knit up in a flash, they're also a great way to use up (non-superwash) wool scrap yarn. When gifting these we love to fill them with succulents or candies - but there are lots of ways to use them.

Hats are a popular quick knit gift, and our Toasty Topper takes it to the next level: the helmet style is lower in the back to cover the head more completely, and the side flaps keep the ears nice and warm. With sizes from newborn to adult XL, you can make them for everyone on your gift list!

The Milli Kerchief can be knit with any gauge to any size. A bulky version (like the one shown here) would knit up in no time! Better still, some simple math helps you use up every inch of your yarn: use 50% for the point, and 25% for each of the ties.

Fleece vests are popular amongst everyone from outdoorsy mountain climbers to fashion-forward city slickers. Unfortunately, most of the ready-made options out there are made with plastic fiber. Knit an eco-friendly version with real wool!

When knitting deadlines approach, it's super bulky yarn to the rescue. Amy is worked on US 17 / 12.75mm needles at fewer than 2 stitches per inch, so it can realistically be finished in a few short days. The simple style is easy to modify: knit it knee-length or cropped, long sleeved or short, add pockets or bobbles - get creative!

Can you knit an entire sweater in just a few days? If it's a Lucia you can. This super bulky pullover is worked on US 19 (15 mm) needles, and the collar is integrated right into the pattern so there's no going back to pick up stitches later. Knit it cropped with short sleeves (Version B), or go for a full turtleneck and longer length (Version A).
