Handmade Holiday Gifting with Miss Babs

Handmade Holiday Gifting with Miss Babs

handmade holiday gifting with fs

We had a ridiculous amount of fun this weekend at our annual Miss Babs Trunk Show and loved getting to see everyone who came out! For anyone who picked up a skein of Yowza! (or two, or five), we’ve got a gift idea for you! (And, for anyone who wasn’t able to make it, never fear, we have more Babs!  See the color ideas below for some of the lovely options currently in stock).

With an astounding 560 yards per skein, Yowza! is the perfect “one skein” project for gifts. If you’ve never knit with this yarn before, now is the perfect time to try it out. In addition to having amazing yardage, it’s soft, smooth in the hand, and (thrillingly) washable!

Our project this week is a lovely shawl by Hilary Smith Callis called Tree Rings. The two-skein version of this shawl made an appearance at this weekend’s Trunk Show, but we think the one-skein version is absolutely perfect for gifting.
