A Last-Minute Gift Guide for Craft Lovers
With the festive season in full swing and the last Royal Mail posting dates for Christmas fast approaching, I’ve pulled together a handy last-minute gift guide.
Whether you’re looking for a thoughtful present for a fellow crafter – or a little something to add to your own wish list – there should be plenty here to tempt you.
Stocking Fillers
These gifts are all small enough to tuck neatly into a stocking. The Crossover Industries Wrist Rulers are always popular, or you might choose Janet Friel's beautiful Love In Every Stitch handmade stitch markers – perfect for keeping your place in knitting or crochet.
See all stocking fillers here.
Useful Tools for Knitters & Crocheters
If you’re shopping for someone who loves their tools as much as their yarn, we have a lovely selection of practical, well-made notions that make genuinely useful gifts for knitters and crocheters alike.

Yarn – Something Truly Special
If you’re looking for a gift that feels a little more considered, yarn is always a lovely choice. A set of my naturally hand-dyed mini skeins from my new venture, The Woolgatherer, makes a beautiful present for any yarn lover – perfect for colourwork, contrast details, or simply enjoying as something special in the stash.
You can also browse our full yarn selection here if you’re choosing a thoughtful gift or planning a quiet Betwixtmas project for yourself. From everyday favourites to more unusual, characterful yarns, there’s something to suit a wide range of makers and projects.

Knitting Kits
We have some beautiful knitting kits available, ideal if you’re after something a little more special. My Fresh Shoots and Tulip Shawl kits include yarn, pattern and thoughtful extras, making them especially gift-worthy.
The In the Round Cowl kits are always popular – perfect for newer knitters wanting to try circular needles, or for more experienced knitters looking for a quick, satisfying project. There’s even still time to knit one as a gift this year.
Needlecraft Kits – Festive Makes
Many of our festive needlecraft kits can be completed in an afternoon or two, so there’s still time to whip up a few handmade decorations or gifts. They also make charming Secret Santa presents or stocking fillers for crafty friends.

Needlecraft Kits – Celebrating Craft
These kits either celebrate the joy of making or help crafters create something practical and beautiful they’ll use again and again. Mrs Cat Loves Knitting is one of our most popular kits, while this Hawthorn Handmade embroidery hoop celebrates both knitting and crochet.
The sweet Corinne Lapierre scissors case and pin cushion kit is part of a collection of useful, well-designed accessories that are a pleasure to make, and then use!
