The Christmas season is approaching, and we are slowly starting to get ready for this year's Christmas preparations. We have already had quite a few customers visit the store in search of inspiration for Christmas gift wishes. Read along below, where we have listed some ideas in different price ranges, so there is something for both the big and the small Christmas gift and maybe even for the almond gift for Christmas lunch in the knitting club. Use the suggestions as inspiration for your own wishes or find the Christmas present for your knitting-loving friend here.

We are happy to wrap your gift. Simply write it in the comment field of your order, and we will pack it in a nice gift box - completely free of charge.

Gifts under DKK 200.

Mask Markers
First on the list of gifts at the cheap end are the beautiful stitch markers from Strikkediem . Silja, who is behind it, is an incredibly skilled craftsman and solders every single little stitch marker herself. They are available in a wide range of colors that can be mixed and matched and decorate any knitwear. The mask markers cost DKK 39 per piece and will be packed in a nice little cellophane bag with business card and sticker.

If you need a lot of stitch markers without so much money, the box from Merchant & Mills is a perfect choice. In the box you get approx. 100 stitch markers for DKK 65.

Knitting accessories
Every knitter needs a good pair of scissors and a sturdy tape measure! The fine stork shears from Prym are both good to cut with and nice to look at, and they only cost DKK 89.

The measuring tape from PetiteKnit is of the best German quality and also costs DKK 89.
From PetiteKnit we also have the indispensable knitting needles "Put Your Stitches on Hold" to DKK 19

Prym Wool Shaver is our favorite tool for refreshing knitwear that is well used and frayed. The electric wool shaver gently cuts away the lint without tugging and wearing unnecessarily on your knitwear. DKK 195

Care and well-being
At the cheap end of the spectrum, you can still give a delicious wellness gift to your knitting friend. The products from Munkholm are incredibly comfortable and gentle on the skin, while their light fragrance notes give an extra sense of luxury. In this price range, you will find both the world's best hand sanitizer , hand soap , lip balm , the super salve and their brilliant Angel Salve , which is good for everything from lips and dry knitting hands to red baby bottoms and cheeks.
For just over DKK 200 you can get Munkholm's wonderful hand cream , which we have in 3 different variants (Tip: all 3 can be tried in the store in Risskov).

Gifts in the price range DKK 200-500.

For gifts in the price range DKK 200-500, we have, among other things, a wide selection of knitting books . Give, for example, the popular book by Lærke Bakker, "Strik", or one of the beautiful recipe books from Laine, " 52 weeks of Socks " and "52 weeks of Shawls " with recipes for socks and shawls respectively for each week of the year.

The accessory set from Pony is a pure luxury gift for the knitter who has everything - and even within a relatively manageable budget. In the accessory set, you will find both a pair of scissors, a twisting needle, wool needles in 3 different sizes, a stitch holder, a stitch collector/crochet needle and stitch markers. The set is packed in a fine felt case with button closure, which fits perfectly in the knitting bag. The set costs DKK 350.

The KnitPro Cross Key Apparatus is an indispensable tool for the seasoned knitter who often knits with hand-dyed yarn. This makes winding significantly easier and faster and makes the finest yarn key. The cross key device from KnitPro costs DKK 270.

(Tip: see also the beautiful cross wrench set from Scheepjes in walnut wood further down in the category "Gifts in the price range DKK 500-1000")

Naturally, you also need a yarn winder for the cross key apparatus, and the beautiful wooden yarn winder from Scheepjes completes the set, so that the recipient will always be able to wind up their yarn at home. The yarn winder costs DKK 300.

(Tip: The yarn winder is, for example, a good gift from the partner who is tired of having to hold the yarn while the knitting maniac winds it up by hand 😉 You might call it a kind of joint gift)

For under DKK 500 you can get a starter set of the popular Seeknit interchangeable circular needles . The sets are available in three sizes, which contain 3-5 sets of tips in small, medium or large sizes with associated wires. Sizes Small and Medium cost DKK 390, while size Large costs DKK 525.

Gifts in the price range DKK 500-1000.

Scheepje's cross spanner is one of those functional devices that you would actually like to have on display at home. It is made of beautiful dark walnut wood and makes it a pure joy to wind up the hand-dyed yarn. The cross wrench device from Scheepjes costs DKK 750.

The interchangeable circular needle set from Pony Perfect is our ultimate favorite set to knit with. There is just the right weight in the beautiful wooden needles, the tips are nicely pointed (which we like), and the wire is soft and pliable when knitting with magic loop. The set contains 5 needle sizes and 3 cables and is a really good set for the knitter who is either a beginner or has been knitting for some time and would like to upgrade the experience with delicious, high-quality knitting needles. We have all sizes of sticks and cables, which can be purchased additionally if you are missing a size. NEW: As something completely new, the set is also available with short tips of 10.5 cm . Check it out here. Both sets cost DKK 560.

The knitting bag from Minuk Bags is handmade by Antje in Hamburg and has the perfect size for both the knitting, a laptop and whatever else you take with you on the go. On the inside, there are both large and small pockets for knitting needles, scissors, stitch markers and other gizmos. The knitted bag is available in different colors and costs DKK 900.

Gifts over DKK 1000.

T he interchangeable circular needle set Koshitsu from Seeknit is hugely popular and particularly known for its smart rotary joint. Koshitsu is an ancient treatment that makes the strong bamboo material even stronger. Koshitsu provides a harder and stronger surface, which at the same time has the naturally soft feel of bamboo. All the round pegs have a rotation joint between the peg and the cable, which means that the cable does not twist and get in the way. The beautiful Japanese and quilted cotton case is available in 4 colours. The set is available both with 14 cm tips ("All Time Luxury") and tips of 12.5 and 10 cm , both for DKK 1275.
