This week's topic: There are many people who ADORE receiving hand-knit or crochet items; but there are just as many who have no appreciation whatever of how much love, work, and time goes into a hand-made item. Share a story of a hand-made gift you gave to someone and how it worked out - good, bad, or ugly!
I can't think of anything that I have knitted to give as a gift because I don't think I'm that good of a knitter to give as a gift. I have given crocheted dish rags though.
I do like to paint and I gave each of my knitter friends a painted ornament that falls in the knitted category.

Of COURSE you are a good enough knitter.....and just to prove this point....as soon as you finish your handspun brown/cream scarf and give to me I will be SURE to appropriately thank you!!! LOL!!!!!
You are so talented in every craft you have ever tried!!!
I love my limited edition Chicks With Sticks ornament....can't wait to see what you come up with for next year (pressure, pressure)!! LOL!!!
your ornament is adorable, I wish I could paint but thats not my forte at all Gathering things for your DTWD Box, will let you know when I mail it
The ornament is gorgeous. That is so funny you have a knitting nazi too.
BTW: Your knitting is great that sock looks amazing. I just finished my first pair but I love yours!
I for one love, love, love my ornament! I made a bunch of knitted dishcloths this year. Don't know how they went over, but I like to pretend that they use them everyday. LOL
I cherish my handmade ornaments that Mater made!!! I hope to have a tree full of nothing but them one day!!!
