Buying for a crocheter or knitter can feel tricky. They already have a stash, and you're not sure what size hook they use. The good news: the best gifts aren't more yarn they didn't pick. They're the tools and projects that make their hobby feel a little more special.
Here are our favorite gifts for the makers in your life, organized by budget.
Ordering for Christmas? For the best chance of arriving before December 25, we recommend ordering by December 8. See our shipping policy.
Stocking stuffers under $25
Crochet Hook Keychain Set: $8
Three tiny, working crochet hooks (3, 4 and 5 mm) that clip onto keys or a project bag, perfect for fixing a dropped stitch anywhere. Small, cheap, and genuinely useful.
120-Pack Locking Stitch Markers: $15
Every maker loses stitch markers. A big pack of colorful locking markers means they'll always have one when they need it, for crochet or knitting.
Purple Glitter Resin & Maple Knitting Needles: $22
A pretty pair of 12" maple needles with glitter resin tips. Not sure of their size? US 10 (6.0 mm) is a versatile, beginner-friendly choice.
Thoughtful gifts, $25 to $50
Christmas Tree Earrings Crochet Kit: $25
A quick, easy holiday project that turns into sparkly earrings. A fun gift to open early in December so they can wear the results to holiday parties. Note: jewelry findings (ear wires and jump rings) aren't included.
16-Piece Crochet Hook Set with Case: $32
Every size from fine 1.0 mm to 6.0 mm in one tidy case. A great gift for someone just starting out, or a handy backup set for a seasoned crocheter.
Sparkle Rosewood Crochet Hook: $35
Hand-turned rosewood with a sparkly resin center. It's the kind of tool most crocheters wouldn't buy for themselves, which makes it a perfect gift. Each one is one of a kind. Not sure what size? 5 mm is one of the most commonly used.
Enchantress Shawl Knitting Kit: $45
For the knitter ready for a satisfying challenge: lace weight silk yarn and a pattern for an airy shawl with a 52" wingspan. Needles aren't included, so it pairs well with a needle gift.
Splurge-worthy gifts
Easy Market Tote Kit (Crochet or Knit): $60
Everything to make a colorful everyday tote from reclaimed chiffon ribbon yarn, with both crochet and knit versions available. A project gift that turns into something they'll use all year.
Handcrafted Rosewood Yarn Bowl: $69
Our favorite gift for any crocheter or knitter. A yarn bowl keeps the ball from rolling across the floor while they work, and this one, rosewood with streaks of blue or green resin, is pretty enough to leave out on the coffee table. It arrives in a gift box.
Anna Tote Bag Crochet Kit: $85
A roomy, statement tote crocheted in upcycled sari silk ribbon yarn. Ideal for an experienced crocheter who loves bold color.
Editor's Box: Recycled Silk Yarn Surprise Bundle: $119
For the adventurous maker who loves new yarn: a hand-picked surprise mix of recycled silk yarns, or a crocheter's or knitter's treasure box with handmade tools and patterns. Every box is different. Please note these boxes are final sale.
Not sure what they need?
A few quick tips:
- Don't know their hook or needle size? Go for something size-free, like a yarn bowl, stitch markers, or a kit.
- Buying for a beginner? A hook set or the Christmas tree earrings kit is approachable and fun.
- Buying for an experienced maker? A beautiful tool like the rosewood hook or yarn bowl is a treat they'd rarely buy themselves.
