our wish list

Some of our team members here at SweetGeorgia Yarns shared what their little maker-hearts dream of unwrapping (or wrapping) this holiday season. Whether you're headed to a white elephant gift exchange or want to delight a fibre-loving pal, we hope you get a little inspiration from our wish list.

Leah would love to treat herself to a leather bracelet that doubles as a measuring tape. Engraved with inches and centimeters, it's the perfect product for those friends on the go. Find it at ilovehandles.com.

Tabetha received a set of Addi FlexiFlips and ever since, she's convinced they are the bee's knees for knitters who bemoan dpn use. Bendy, comfortable, and perfect for socks, you're going to love them, too. Find out more at skacelknitting.com.

Allison is all about the awesome tees, sweatshirts, and bags from Stitchers Tees. These 100% cotton, organic, fair-trade tops are perfect for showing what you really care about! Check them out at stitcherstees.com.

"My favorite colour is green," hinted Hubert, the non-knitter in the group, when he shared that he'd love to find a slouch hat under the tree. Moravia by Madeleine Windsor fits the bill, we think! You can find the hat on our website and Ravelry.

Felicia discovered a new product that called Wood Beams by Goodies Unlimited, saying, "It makes everything smell nice, shiny, and the wood is sealed and hydrated. It would make a nice gift for a spinner or weaver with a loom... or anything that is made from wood." Find it at goodiesunlimited.com.

When your passion is yarn, it helps to have a place to keep it all. Charlotte has visions of storage baskets for her yarn, like this one from The Basket Room on etsy.com. Five different sizes promise a lot of yarn storage!
