We're so pleased to be a stop on the
Holla Knits blog tour this month! Just in time for your holiday gift-knitting, the
2013 Holla Knits! Accessories issue features six fun, fashionable accessories that are perfect to give and get this holiday season.
The
KaPOM hat by Mari Chiba is a fresh take on earflap hats, and it's also an easy way to incorporate pom poms, one of this season's hottest trends, into your wardrobe. If you're new to making pom poms, check out our
easy-to-follow photo tutorial on the Knitter's Pride blog!
The
Pippi Cowl by Emily Greene Blue is a versatile bulky-weight scarf that knits up quick; it would even look great with pom poms instead of tassels!
Keep your hands toasty all winter long with the
Hodgepodge Mittens by Annie Watts - they're as fun to knit as they are to wear!
Speaking of colorwork, the
Chumash Cowl by Karinknit Designs is simple to knit and completely reversible, too!
Unbroken by Lee Meredith may look like a simple cloche-style hat with textured stitches, but the clever construction allows you to easily customize your project to fit any head - plus, there are no ends to weave in at the end (really!).
No Glove(s) No Love by Claire Sandow are vintage-inspired gloves with a modern twist: a heart cutout created by multidirectional knitting, short rows, and some strategically placed increases and decreases.
