JUST BECAUSE Gift Idea: A Post by Nico Jaye
On days when I don't want to do much or when reading or writing just don't hold much appeal (yes, they exist – shocking, I know!), I plop in front of the TV with a movie and some yarn. Recently I discovered a new (and super easy) pattern, and a couple days later, I had a couple of new hats. Yay!
Here's the new hat that I made for Nico:
[Note from Penny: OH MY GOD! THIS IS ADORABLE!]
And here's the pattern I used to make it:
For my own hat, I used super chunky yarn (Hometown USA by
Lion Brand, to be precise) in neon pink.
[Note from Penny: SQUEEEEE! Matching Hats! I LOVE IT!]
Homemade gifts are pretty nifty, and they're super budget friendly, too. You can give your homemade gift a professional touch by attaching custom name tags that say "Created by" or "Handmade by," which you can whip up on your computer or order online.
This
eBay store has a bajillion stamp designs that you can customize. I've had
my eye on this
design for a while:
The cold days don't seem to be letting go, so maybe this
little hat might help keep one of your loved ones (furry or otherwise) warm and
toasty! =)

From Penny: That is the CUTEST THING EVER! I wonder if Lucy and I could wear matching sweaters? Hmmm....
Thanks, Nico, for this great post!
Ciao!
