I knit some projects. Especially dishcloths. No I don’t start early. I’m a procrastinator. Love your channel.
I try to knit some of my gifts each year. It varies. Right now its slippers for the grandsons. You are my go to for Knitting help and ideas. Thank you . I have had a subscription to your channel for a couple years now. I would love to win those needles.
I usually start knitting gifts right after Christmas. I don’t like pressuring myself by having to worry about not finishing. A mistake I’ve made in years past. Love your channel!
Oh I love watching your videos. I just subscribed to your channel and look forward to seeing more of your videos. I usually start my Christmas gifts around June so that I can get them finished in time. Please enter me into your awesome contest, I’d love to win these needles.
I like to knit some dishcloths for holidays. I just started your shaker dishcloths and have finished one for now, ready for more. Love your bulky socks and dishcloths.
I knit a couple of my holiday gifts. I knitted to scarves for my grandmother. I’m trying to knit some intarsia dishcloths for people , too.
I love to knit for the holidays, and started about a month ago. Love your channel!
I love making dishcloths hats gloves mittens and other things. It would be awesome to win this contest wish me luck!!!!!
I start on my Christmas knitting projects in July. I usually make fingerless gloves and cowls for presents. This year I made a very complicated sweater for one of my daughter and it was a good thing I started in July as I am now just finishing sewing it together!
I’m not making my gifts this year because I’m just learning to knit. I made a washcloth and am now working on a cowl and am still trying to get to the hang of counting and keeping my place. Once I perfect that, I’ll start working on gifts for next year. Thanks for the giveaway!
Ideally I like to start by late winter, early spring. I spend so much time deciding what I am going to knit and who is receiving the gift, that I don’t actually start knitting until early summer. I’m always in a knitting frenzy to finish gifts in time for Christmas. LOL
I generally start knitting Christmas gifts around October and finish on December 24th! I am currently working on ribbed hat because hats knit up quickly. Happy Holidays
I am starting now to crochet dish cloths for Christmas gifts.
I knitted my first scarf a few months ago and decided to give it to my son for Christmas. I just started making hats a few weeks ago and have three finished and two others that are almost done. Everyone on my list is getting a hat this year.
The flat sided knitting needles look very interesting. Oh, and BTW, I wish there was a way for someone (ahem) to get permission to do a tutorial on knitting the “Lucy Hat”…The crocheted version just doesn’t quite get there, does it. I, mmyself, would certainly pay for a video of it. I want to make that hat but have failed miserably every time I try. I’m a visual person and I know I would fly through a video of it. Please Please Please. Marty
I forgot. I knit lots of X-mas presents and I never really stop. It’s an on-going affair.
I make most of my gifts every year either sewing or knitting. This year I am knitting half of them. Every year on December 25th I say I will start earlier the following year. Then every year in mid November I finally decide what I am going to make and get knitting! I love your videos, they are the best out there!
I love to knit for family and those who would truly appreciate hand made gifts. A lot of time and preparation goes into my work and the recipients are lovingly thought of (or prayed for) during the making of each piece, either sewn or knitted. I usually begin whenever my first inspiration comes, then the rest flow pretty easily. With that being said, I usually start sometime during the summer when the weather is too hot for nice wool knitted things. Somehow, it makes me think of Christmas and what to knit. Unfortunately, I have overworked my right hand thumb trying to finish a scarf I was mentally finished with already. Full blown knitter’s fatigue. Sigh! So, my knitting has slowed to a crawl. But, I can still sew without difficulty. Merry Christmas, Staci! I love your videos!

Working on Fingerless Gloves(your pattern!) as gifts. I just started my Christmas gifts. Thankfully your pattern is easy and quick! Love your videos…they are how I learned to knit last year! Beautiful needle set:-)
I am knitting a few pairs of slippers for family members and making felted wool dryer balls for a few friends! Would love to win this set of needles!
Yes, I am knitting gifts of hats, socks and mitts. I’m waiting for the yarn to be delivered. Nothing like waiting until the last minute. I hope to win, but I do have backup needles in case I don’t win. ????
Knitting…it has become my passion. I start in the summer with the first project I decide to make for Christmas. Then I see something new to try, on your channel of course, so start that one. Then about October/November I decide I better finish what I started. Actually just finished my last knitted gift this week, a Saroyan scarf with matching fingerless gloves. Your tutorials keep my creativity flowing and I always learn something new. Thank you so much for the time you take! Happy Holidays to you and yours.

Thank you for all your videos. I try every year to start my holiday knitting projects early but it seems that I like to knit under pressure so it’s more like October when I start. Have a happy holidays.
I decided to knit/crochet dishcloths for every month this year…so I started back in January….5 full sets….easy when you start that early.
I love hats! they are quick to make, look spectacular and very visible when I want to look nice.
I am so hooked on your videos 😀 Keep them coming as they make even the most difficult technique seem easy. You Rock!
I am very impressed with your videos. I am knitting your cropped raglan sweater. It has taken me out of my comfort zone. I would like to work with double point needles (scary) and learn cable stitch. You have encouraged me to try. Thank you for incentives.
I am very impressed with your videos. Without it I would not have knitted out of my comfort zone. I am making my first sweater. The cropped raglan sweater. You have encouraged me to expand my knitting to new projects. Thank you.
I have a friend who has had breast cancer surgery. She starts Radiation the end of January. I would like to knit her a Breast Cancer ribbon lap robe to keep her warm while going through this treatment. Do you have a pattern for the ribbon? Thank you so much… really enjoy your YouTube videos… I learn so much from you…
Thank you so much, Sherry
I am trying to find a pattern for the Breast Cancer Ribbon… I have a friend who has had breast cancer surgery in November and will start radiation the end of January…. I would love to make her a lap robe with that design… Can you help me… ? Thank you very much… I love your videos on YouTube and learn so much from them… Thank you for sharing your knowledge… fondly, sherry
Sherry – no, I don’t have any pattern for that, but if there is a pattern like that to be found, you’ll find it by searching Ravelry. Good luck!
