GIFTS FOR YARN LOVERS
CROCHETERS
- Use a crochet hook to make items with any type of yarn.
- Can make blankets, beanies, cardigans, bonnets, booties, toys and more.
- Crocheters are often split into 2 main interests, though some will switch make both.
Group 1 prefer to work with thin cotton yarn to make teatowel toppers, doilies, string bags and other intricate items.
Group 2 more commonly use an 8-10ply thicker yarn in a wool or acrylic to make blankets, hats, scarves and other clothing.

From using a paper cutting or die cut machine to cut out bombonniere boxes to slicing strips for quilling. There are a lot of things that papercrafters can make.
