Sometimes, I just need it NOW. I’ve forgotten a friend’s birthday and need a last minute gift, or I’m going out tonight and want something cute to go with my new top. Whatever the reason, I need a pattern I can make in just a few hours. Been there? If so, Knits in a Day is the book for you! Each project in this book can be made in 3 hours or less.

So Many Choices!

There are 40 (yes, 40!) projects in this book. No matter what your last minute need, there’s bound to be something here that will work. The wide variety of mits, hats, fingerless gloves, headbands, and boot cuffs are all great for gifts.

Need something cute for school picture day? Try the Add a Bow or Zig Zag Headband patterns. I particularly love the Mary Jetts slippers.

Gifts for Him

Several of the hat patterns work well for men or women. One of my favorites is the Family Hat. It comes in a beanie and slouchy version, and has a classic style that works for almost everyone. There are also non-clothing options such as a gift card holder, cup sleeve, water bottle cozy, and the Colorblock Wallet.

Multiple Designers

This fabulous collection is a compilation of designs from multiple contributors. All the designers are listed at the back, and the cover page for each pattern shows who designed it. I’m a big fan of this type of book, because you can get a wide variety of styles and options.

Which projects will you choose from this collection? It’s a hard choice – you may want to make them all!
