Bundle Up Betty is a wooden version of the paper doll. Little girls (or their adult makers) can create their own outfits to dress Betty in. Patterns are available on Ravelry to knit, but sewn clothes would be great as well.

For Needlepointers

Needle Bling/Magnets 

Needle magnets are essential to needlepointing – they keep your needles handy and safe when not in use. And, if you have to use needle magnets, why not make them something special with these blingy ones? (Sorry, not available on line.)

 

 

 

Stella Light TableStella Light

These are our favorite lights by far! With Tri-Spectrum Technology which allows users to easily change their light from a warm spectrum similar to incandescent lights, to a natural white similar to sunlight, to a cool white similar to moonlight and  5-level dimming, the Stella light is simply the best. Available in floor, table or clamp models.

K's Floor Stand

 

K’s Floor Stand

Needlepointers love this stand, because it allows them to stitch hands free, giving more flexibility to execute complicated stitches and relieving muscle aches and pains. Give this to someone you love!

 

 

For Yarnies

Yarn Bowls

Yarn bowls are beautiful and functional – they keep yarn from rolling across the floor (or under your chair) while working with it.

 

 

 

True Colors 1

 

True Colors Color Pack

This beautiful shawl by designer Melanie Berg will flatter anyone and be a joy to knit. Our kit contains all of the colors chosen by the designer died in luscious Lorna’s Laces Shepherd Sock. (The color pack does not include the pattern, but it can be downloaded here.)

June Cashmere

Treat your knitter or crocheter to true luxury with this 100% Cashmere yarn. June works with nomadic Kyrgyz shepherds to collect the fiber for this beautiful and oh-so-soft yarn. One skein will make the Journey Mitts or three skeins can make the His or Her Scarf.

 

Of course, these are not the only gifts we have available at 3 Kittens – there are too many to choose from to list them all here. But, hopefully, this gives you a few ideas!

Remember, a thoughtful gift is always more exciting to open than a gift card (although, we sell those too!).
