plastic canvas knitting needle case from crafty pod

I am of the opinion that it is never too early to be making Christmas gifts. I am also of the opinion that no one appreciates a handmade gift as much as someone who also makes things.

So finding something you can make (and finish) that uses your stash and is for your friends who knot or crochet is a gifty home run.

That’s why I am so delighted with this needlecase from Diane of Crafty Pod. You can use it for knitting needles, crochet hooks, or pencils. Use threads from your stash and a cute button to finish up.

And it is easy and fast to stitch, it’s basically weaving. And if you want to impress people, tell them it’s laidwork and it sounds difficult, even if it’s not.
