If you are passionately curious and never get tired of learning new things, new skills, new ideas...I hope you enjoy watching my videos and learn something. Have a sparkly day!
Out of 5k views and 75 comments (my comment is #76) I am the only one who gave a thumbs up! There are no thumbs down either and shouldn't be. I am disappointed in people watching videos and not taking a nano second, while watching, to simply give a thumbs up.
If I understand it correctly, the number of views keep the videos on UA-cam longer and the number of thumbs up push the videos to a higher level to be made more available for watching in more areas, under more categories and added to more play lists. This keeps your favorite UA-camrs and specific videos available more often. So, crafting enthusiasts please, please, please give a thumbs up on each and every video you watch and like!!!
Thank you, Kristine, for searching for and sharing these 18 gift ideas for Christmas or any other time a small or inexpensive gift is needed to give to a knitter, crocheter, or crafter!!!
God bless you and your family!
Merry Christmas!
P. S. If you don't need these nor have someone you plan to give them to, I would love to receive them! I don't have any of them and they would be so handy to have!
I needed something like this for quilting stocking stuffers, because my mom quilts and I know enough to know that I don't know what she needs.
The yarn weight trick just blew my mind! How have I gone through knitting life not knowing this?
This year I am living on a small Social Security income. I can't buy anyone anything but I'm going to sew and knit all of my presents with my stash. I really like your videos and I do wish I could buy some of these products. I don't have any knitting, sewing or crafting friends or family but I would like some of those products for myself. Oh, well, at least I'm aware those products exist and there is such a thing as wishing. I love all of your videos and look forward to every single one.
Hi Sonia -- always great to hear from you. Thanks so much for watching. 💜
Very very cute ideas! Thank you very much for posting this! Greetings from Germany!
Every one of these ideas is absolutely awesome! Thank you for taking the time to put this video together. So many of these I wish I had for my project bag.
I found a thing to hold my patterns in the car. Thanks for the idea!
Had to stop about half way through and went out and bought the Pony Knitting Calculator and the kitchen scale. I really like that calculator and I've been wanting to get a scale. Great stocking stuffer for me.
As always I want one of each lol. You find the most unique and useful items! I really appreciate all of the work you put into your channel. I hope you have a wonderful holiday!
ALL good ideas Kris!! I particularly like the knitting calculator. The less I have to think in this cold weather the better:)
I loved your show last year and this one is even better. My husband got me the little scale you recommended last year - I’ve only used it twice so far but both those times I was able to use up a favorite yarn that had some leftovers - winning! I’m going to send this You Tube to my husband and make it really easy for him to fill my stocking this year - thank you and happy holidays!
I loved this video Kristine!! It was full of so many fun items to check out. I am definitely going to go see what I can find. I have a friend in England who I correspond with and send fun gifts to. Some of these items will be perfect to send in my next package. I always enjoy your show! Hope to see you again soon!
Have a lovely day,
Sharon
Thank you for all the ideas. My favorite is the kaleidoscope.
So glad you are back 🤗. Great ideas for stocking stuffers.
Wow, all of these are awesome gifts (to received also haha!!) I hope you do this every year!!!
Thank you!! I ordered the sticky clips for a Christmas present....and one set for myself. LOL Great ideas!! Thanks again!
Some great ideas there. Wish I lived on the North American continent...particularly love the kitten stitch markers!
Margaret, I don't know where you live, but there is a seller of similar kitten stitch markers in the UK. Let me know if you want the info
It seems to be a really busy year for most of us. I could not resist the needle holder, how perfect, thanks for that share. The micro light was out of stock, :( and Amazon did not have one like it. But another day perhaps, LOL. Like the Stikki clip thing as well. Several other items went into my wish list as well. But the needle case, had to get it. Always glad to see when you upload a new video, I learn so much and have so much fun. Have a Merry Christmas and may your stocking be filled with lots of knitterly goodies.
I have several Handi-Tools....love it. I also have the Compartment Cases; glad to have a new source. Interested in the Scale, Clip and Light.
Thanks. Already ordered the pocket scale. I have a lot of the lights you have shown over the years, so I can knit while we drive from Chicago to Idaho twice a year for vacation.
So nice to see you back. Glad all is well and your absence wasn't because of illness. Thank you for some great ideas.
I think the yarn dots are re-imagined from the Croc decorations!
I have been watching for your videos. So glad to hear from you. Merry Christmas to you.
I’m catching up on your videos while knitting up some Christmas gifts. You had some great little notions and I think I’m going to order and add some conductive thread to the colorwork mittens I’ll be starting next!
Thank you soooooo much! This was so very helpful! Holiday Cheers to you.......
Thank you for the great ideas! I’m especially intrigued by that tiny clip-on light. Ingenious!
Best of luck with the end of semester toils. I know I’m looking forward to a break. Being a professor really cuts into my knitting time 😜
I know, if only we could be stay-at-home crafters, LOL! 💙
LOVED, LOVED this episode. You are one of my favorite channels! I appreciate the time and research you put into all of your podcasts.
Thanks for these ideas :)
Thankyou so much for these ideas!
I like watching all the knitting and fiber goodies.
Love all of your ideas! I especially like the small kaleidoscope, the sticky clip and the mighty light. I enjoy all of your videos :)
Great to see you back again! I loved the list of stocking stuffers. Looking forward to the next video!
Yeah! Missed you!
I like the kitten stitch markers. I am going to get them for my aunt and cousin 👍🏻🎁
Also like the Sticky clip, pocket scale, compartment travel case, conductive thread, and acrylic needle case. Thanks for sharing such good ideas
Awesome video! Thanks for sharing!-🇨🇦
Very beautiful thinges thank you
Hi Kristine! I am not a regular viewer, but the title of this episode caught my attention when I had searched something else. I am super impressed with your selection especially since you included things I wouldn't have thought of or hadn't seen before. I will definitely be looking for a few of these items. I am so glad you showed the pocket scale. I have debated it for a long time, but after seeing how little it actually is and how often I have ever needed a scale while out and about (NEVER) I decided against it. Thank you so much for a great video. Also, I adore your shirt. Merry Christmas/Happy Holidays to you and your family!
Thanks for watching and for leaving a comment. Merry Christmas to you, too! 🎅
I love the kitten stitch markers! It is so nice to have you back😊
Great ideas!
Glad to see you back with your list of stocking stuffers for this year and the link to the play list for last years. I always make sure to comment and you don't have to reply, just LIKE. Thanks Kristine
Thank you, Kris! Just what I was looking for! 💞
These ideas are great. Thank you!!
Really nice ideas!
Fantastic video!
Thanks for sharing these suggestions. As a newish knitter I was not aware that some of these things are available and will find them useful and giftable.
Great ideas, thanks for sharing! I've added a few to my list, the micro clip light, pocket scale, and the needle case. Another gift idea, those glass fingernail files. Wishing you a yarny holiday season!
Hi Kristine! Nice to see you! Hope you are well! I can certainly relate to being busy! Thanks for sharing all of these wonderful ideas! Merry Christmas!
What a great and comprehensive list! I had no idea that many of these fun things existed. Thank you!
I was waiting for this video with your lovely and useful ideas for gifts!Some of them will be for myself!I am glad you are doing well and that your absence was due to your teaching work.I wish you a stress free Christmas month.Thank you!
Oooh, I love the kitten stitch markers, the pocket scale, the sticky clips, and the micro-clip light. I ordered them all. Thank you! The micro light will be a great gift for my kids too who want to read or do other activities in the car while traveling at night.
Those are the exact 4 things I want haha :D
Hi Cayenne -- so nice to hear from you. I'm glad you were able to get the things you wanted! That little light is sold out already, and I can't find it available anywhere else. 💜
You always have such great gift giving ideas!! Happy holidays friend!
Hi Vikki -- so great to hear from you! Happy Holidays to you, too! 🎅💜💜💜
The pocket scales would be wonderful.
Thank You!
A very nice list of little gift ideas. We also use the travel cases to pack OTC meds for vacations. I just ordered a 6 pack of them on Walmart for $7.00 with free pickup at my local store.
That is a bargain if you have a knit group to give gifts to. I plan to fill and put one in each of my knitting project bags to hold my notions.
Also, my local Dollar Tree sells a 2 pack of tape measures by the cash registers. It includes one retractable style and one sewing tape style. The retractable one has key ring, so I have placed one on each project bag zipper pull. I never have to hunt for one. That would be another stocking stuffer idea.
Welcome back!! We’ve missed you and your great content! I am definitely getting the acrylic needle case! Beautiful and practical! Merry Christmas!!!
Thankyou ❤️
Dr Kelly! Another great Christmas podcast! I have been waiting for this year's podcast. Yes, I had to order some Bonbons while they were on sale. One of my newest finds are the knitting row counters on ETSY by Twice Sheared Sheep. This is a chain used to count rows. Very helpful and ingenious!
Merry Christmas. I look forward to more Christmas podcast this year!!
Hi Elizabeth -- great suggestion; thanks! Merry Christmas to you, too! 🎅
The yarn stash behind you is on my wish list! The kitten stitch markers are lovely looking and the compartment travel case looks useful for many things. I also like knit counters to keep track of what row you are on etc. Would love to be in your knitting group - you are such a sweet person. Merry Christmas.
Hi Mary -- thank you. 💜
Kristine, agai, i 💙 all your stocking stuffers! i would like the first ten...ic
Lion Brand has plastic crochet hooks with a twist in the handle, making them ergonomic; I picked up a set of 3 in larger sizes for $10 from Michaels.com on Black Friday. 2 years ago I got both of the Boye "Swiss army knife" crochet hook sets; the only problem with them is that they tend to fold back into the handle when you're using one of the hooks.
Awesome suggestions -- thanks! Yes, I have the "army knife" ones, too. I was going to review them in a video, but I found them hard to work with for that very reason. I ended up not liking them.
Thanks a wonderful list of useful items. I fell in love with #3 Susan Bates Handi Tool years ago and have bought it in every color, and have one in every project bag. The reason for so many is my favorite place to knit, when I’m home, is a recliner chair that eats the tool. It sucks is down into the works and I can’t find it. To date I have lost 5 to the chair. I have turned the chair upside down and still can’t find them. One of these days I’m going to take the backing off and they will all appear. Thank goodness that they are so cheap and easy to replace. I use them for dropped stitches and for weaving in my ends.
Now the tool I didn’t know about, and will be getting, is #12 Micro Chip Light. Thanks for the link, will check it out in the morning.
I would really like to get my hands on several of these. They are hard oto find in Canada and I didn't see any when I was in the US last.
I found a shop in Canada that has them: www.valleycrafthavenandsupplies.net/store/p46/Susan_Bates_Silvalume_Handi_Tool.html
Loved this episode. Would you recommend a good knitting journal please? I bought MYSELF a few stocking stuffers today🧶🎄🐑
Hi Jo -- thank you! Gosh, I'm not sure about a knitting journal. I've seen some in local yarn shops over the years. But I've always just used a regular notebook when I did keep track of my projects. (I've been a bit remiss lately about tracking FOs and WIPs...)
Every year I resolve to be a better job of keeping track of my projects. Maybe I’ll make better use of Ravelry this year. The micro clip light is no longer available from Amazon either. I bought a clip on reading light to see if it might work. My daughter is also a professor and I know the end of the semester is busy. Thanks for taking time to post two videos and enjoy your winter break
Yes, I used to keep track of everything on Ravelry but have gotten out of the habit. It's too bad, really, because I can't count the number of times I've gone back to look at a project I have on there to find out the yarn, etc. And yes, someone told me yesterday that the little lights have sold out, and I can't find them anywhere else now. I updated the description box to indicate that they are sold out. Sorry!
I love the Micro-Clip Light but the hyperlink doesn't navigate to it. :(
Hi Heidi -- someone said yesterday that they had sold out. :( I just added a note to the description. Sorry!
Great ideas!
