5 Last Minute Handmade Gifts to Make

5 Last Minute Handmade Gifts to Make

By the time you read this blog post, there will be 36 days left until Christmas.

Don't panic! Many of us try to get our gifts made early, but it is inevitable—there are always a few that fall through the cracks.

Here are five of our favorite quick and easy projects from the Schacht blog to help you this holiday season.

1. Weave a speckled scarf on your Cricket loom.

This project is an easy one to make. Though it is plain weave, the color of the yarn makes this project POP!

2. Make a custom wall hanging on your frame loom.

This is a great gift! Make one using your leftover yarns (who doesn't love that?) in colors that the recipient loves!

3. Give the gift of snowflakes from your Cricket loom.

Another plain weave scarf that gets spruced up by discharge dye! The snowflake motif is perfect for the winter season.

4. Make a twisty wrap on your rigid heddle loom.

Though you probably don't have time to weave the skirt featured in this blog post, the wrap is a perfectly manageable project to make between now and Christmas.

5. Make a Sugar Plum Fairy with Zoom Loom squares.

This convertible toy has been a hit amongst Zoom Loom weavers and is topical for this holiday season! You can hide small toys or candy in the plum, when the kids open them, they will get the added surprise of a new plush toy.
