Hello everyone! Tara here—
There’s nothing better than finishing a project before the new year.
If you aren’t close to finishing the projects you’re working on now, why not sneak in another quick little project?
Here are a few wonderful projects that you can get done before the new year:
These hats use a large hook and super bulky yarn and can be whipped up in an afternoon. Everyone in your family will love them!
You can use some of the worsted weight yarn you have laying around to quickly stitch up these mittens! Because the stitches aren’t complicated, you can turn this project into a stash-buster and let the different yarn colors shine.
# 3: Snowy Day Cowl
Like with Maggie’s Mittens, you can easily turn this project into a stash-buster! It’s easy to make and easier to wear—just throw it on and go.
# 4: Aurora Shawl
Big layers are in and this one is quick to make with worsted weight yarn, a size J hook and a little openwork.
If you need a few extra holiday gifts or decorations, you can make these trivets in no time. They’re made with 2 strands of worsted cotton held together and a size J hook! Make them in whites, blues, and grays to have the perfect Winter/New Year-themed trivets.
# 6: Crochet Basket Set Pattern
Start your year off right with a little extra organization! These little nesting baskets are perfect catch-alls for keys, buttons, hair ties, and so much more.
Happy New Year!
