My favorite wearable is my winter hat because I’m new at making things with yarn, and this was something easy I could make for myself. I wear it all the time.
crystal my favourite knit wearable is knitted slipper socks they feel so good on my feetc
Right now, I’m knitting socks, so they’re my favorite at the moment. You can get great color combos and make some toasty socks and/or slippers in no time.
My mother made bulky knit sweaters when I was growing up. I am now starting to make some. I enjoy finding patterns. My favorite knit/crochet to wear is a shawl.
What a great way to restart the knitting
I am teaching myself to knit and am using a pattern for an eternity scarf. The needles are size 10 circular and so far it seems pretty easy. I know how to crochet but have always wanted to learn to knit.
Truthfully, I am just learning to knit, so I am starting with a scarf. In crochet, I like to keep trying new things. I have crocheted several tops, a few shrugs, a cardi, and lots of baby blankets, booties, & cocoons. I Have many more patterns saved to crochet and have a beginning knit pattern collection. I would like to learn to knit in the round, after I get faster at straight knitting and make socks both ways. There are so many amazing patterns. I also have a few that are partially knit and partially crochet that I am itching to try. I just have to get better at knitting, but as long as I keep finding wonderful free crochet patterns on your site, that I really want to make, I have a feeling my knitting is going to continue to be put on hold until I finish Christmas presents and projects for an Orphanage in Mexico that my friend started. Sorry this is so long, I am just a little yarn crazy and have been so enjoying these patterns! Thank you for all you do! Great giveaway and good luck everyone!
I just started crocheting again, last time was 35 years ago. I made a baby crib blanket, baby sweater, hat and booties for my new 6 mos old granddaughter. I now am doing loom knitting and weaving. My favorite are the multicolored blankets that I’m working on. I am so in awe that there are so many how-to videos on YouTube that have helped me learn these skills. I usually learn by reading instructions but I think the videos in this case are definitely more beneficial to me. Also, all the free patterns make this hobby so enjoyable. I’ve found the various forums very helpful as I’ve shared and received tips from so many other “knitters”.
Happy Holidays to all!
I like knitting cowls with circular needles. Because they’re small, simple items and don’t require careful fitting, I enjoy trying more complex colorwork patterns. I’ve been experimenting with Fair Isle knitting patterns…so beautiful!
I don’t know how to knit but my favorite knit item to wear are woolly socks knit by my inlaws. However my favorite crochet item, that I make, to wear are scarves. They can change your mood and the look of an outfit in a flash.
As a breast cancer survivor, I’ll never forget how cold my head would get after I lost my hair from chemo. Even more so, I’ll never forget the kindness of complete strangers who crocheted and knitted the hats I wore during that time. I’ve been a survivor for 5 years, have my own hair back, and now make hats for other survivors.
I love to make skirts. My favorite is a long red one that I made myself for Christmas last year.
I like to knit Scarves, they are easy and quick.
To tell you the truth I don’t know how to knit. But I want to learn how very badly. I could really use that stuff to learn with. That would be the best Christmas ever in my book to win this prize and learn to knit.
Scarves are quick and easy ways to use up leftover yarn, try out new stitches, and they’re warm. Plus, they’re the essence of portable. I’m especially in love with infinity scarves, because they’re less likely to get caught in the door, yanked off, and lost.
A sweater because it’s warm.
Scarves!!! Quick, easy and fun to give as gifts. Even more fun to see your friends and family wearing your creations.
I love making hats and scarves for the homeless and baby blankets. This time of year we could all use a littlee help keeping warm.
Oh I have so been wanting to do this pattern for so long. my fingers are crossed!
My favorite thing to knit 30 years ago was a yoke for sweatshirts. I had a great pattern but lost it unfortunately. I would love to find it again! They were so pretty. I am wanting to get back into knitting for exercise for my arthritic hands.
I don’t knit. But I crochet all the time. Shaw’s, afghans, pillow covers, dish clothes, dish towels, baby sweaters and afghans, I could go on forever with everything I have crocheted. This pattern looks awesome. I’ll be trying it after Christmas.
I love to try different patterns right now I’m working on scarves for family Christmas
I don’t knit, but I love to crochet scarves!
Scarves or blankets!
Cowls. I learned to knit only 2yrs ago and this is one of my favorite things knit & to wear as my neck is always chilled. 😀
My favorite to knit is a cardigan type sweater.
At Present I’m making lapgans from your great patterns for the Veterans at our local VA hospital. One of my favorite things to either knit or crochet is poncho’s. So easy to just throw on when it’s cool.
I love to crochet and make lap robes for Veterans and nursing homes. I love to see the smiles on their faces when i give them one.
My fave wearable right now is
Scarves and cowls. Wonderful accessories and so many possibilities
I mostly crochet baby blankets and booties, but have made a shawl that I love to use when I get chilled while at work. I have plans to make some socks and a top for myself (when my friends stop having all the babies and grandbabies).
I love a knitted hat. Always so warm.
Fingerless mitts, they are just the right amount of coverage and I still can manipulate things with my fingers
I don’t know how to knit–yet. I like scarves because they are pretty quick.
I love to knit anything that keeps me warm. lol Hats and scarves as well as shawls are what I usually do. I think that the shawls and scarves are the most fun and the things that I knit most often but socks are fun too but harder so those are done when I am feeling especially patient.
Iove my granny shrugs! Fingers Crossed!
I don’t knit, but I love to crochet scarves and afghans.
I crochet afghans for me and as for presents.
I don’t knit but i love crochet beanies.
I so want to learn to knit so I can make sweaters, my favorite!
I love to crocket! I would love to make this blanket!
Scarfs and cowls as my neck gets cold in winter 🙂
I like to crochet hats and/or head bands for my sister- in -laws and pass them out after Christmas dinner. They appreciate them cause they are done in their favorite colors.
I’m not a very good knitter, so I just make scarves.
I love making baby blankets and afghans. I’ve been knitting and crocheting for most of my life and have made everything from pot holders to dolls
to sweaters. Such a wonderful hobby!
I like cable sweaters to wear, but the yarn for this afgan would work out for the afgans that I donate to children’s hospitals.
My favorite that I make over and over would be slippers, I cant go without them, cold Canada winters bring new ideas for warming my toes with slippers.
I’m not sure of your question, I am not a very good knitter but pretty good at crochet. Some things still trip me up but asking ” what is your favorite wearable knit and why?”, on a crochet item is not very nice. This came up because I sign up for free crochet patterns. Ok, I have tried to knit scarves, but my mother-in-law keeps telling me that they just fall apart so she throws them away. I have a wash cloth (with the sailboat design on it). I have a baby blanket that I tried to do about 12 years ago for my cousin when she was expecting, now it might be ready for his child because it is still on the circular needles I had to buy to do that particular baby blanket. I usually stay with crocheting now, it was easier to remember my Mem teaching me when I was little. I have done sweaters, scarves, hats, shawls, blankets. I just can’t seem to keep my yarn in stock at home, everyone wants something, so I would love to win this yarn because I have never done a blanket like this one, and my husband can’t complain about me buying more yarn. Sorry for the super long entry!
It says knit or crochet. Whatever you enjoy making and wearing. Merry Christmas
My favourite knitted items are sweaters and fingerless gloves. Due to having fibro and arthritis, I get cold often and these things help to keep me warm year-round.
I’ve been crocheting and knitting for a lot of years and in spite of all the new things I’ve learned I always come back to afghans and scarves with a couple of fingerless gloves thrown in!
I have been sobbing as I look at all of the great patterns lately as I wait for my arm to get better. After what I think is a pulled muscle in my right arm ( I hate doctors so I am pretty sure that’s what it is.) This pattern however may be worth the ache.
Definitely a knitted hat! Depending on the chosen color and style of brim, they can be ultra-feminine or very manly (which makes my husband and two boys happy). My daughter and I enjoy matching whatever it is we’re wearing to a homemade knitted hat from our hat stash.
🙂
I don’t knit, yet. A friend is going to teach me after the holidays. I would so love to win this and learn to knit this beautiful blanket!
My favorite wearable knit is a boyfriend sweater. I Iove the roomy sleeves
& the longer length of the overall sweater. Generally a higher collar sets the deal.
I have been crocheting since I was very little, and have just recently become a self taught (thank you internet videos!) knitter. So I haven’t made anything more than hats, scarves and a lot of boot cuffs for Christmas! My goal is to make both a sweater and a pair of socks.
I love to make something that people will use… like to make baby hats, and big people hats too!
My favorite wearable to knit are baby sweaters and hats because they are so adorable, while keeping them warm and comfy.
And by the way, that is one gorgeous afghan!!!!!
I am knitting a nice warm sweater. I cannot wait to wear it. I am sure that it will be my favorite.
I don’t know how to knit, yet. After Christmas I plan to teach myself like I taught myself to crochet. I absolutely love to crochet and hope I enjoy knitting just as well.
Socks cuz my feet are always cold.
Socks, Slippers, Cowls, Ear warmers and scarves. All for warmth and they are fast to make.
I crochet but love the look of knit … designing and crochet my own baby blankets id a fav
My favorite wearables to knit are shawls. I have a slight shawl obsession right now.
I’m a crocheter, not a knitter, but scarves, scarves, scarves!
(I also love this afghan and may have to give it a try!)
I am crazy for cowls. I can use my imagination and create a different look with everyone I knit. I have used chevrons, entrelac, lace, fair isle, mixed weights of yarn, and yes, I have stashed busted with my creations. The best part of cowls is the NEVER fall off!
I love knitting socks and hats. Both very practical and great on the go projects.
I am in the beginning stages of learning to knit. I crochet all the time though! My favorite thing I make is my dog scarves. I love dogs so I make scarves to resemble them! It is my favorite thing to do!
Mittens because that’s one of my mom’s favorite memories of her grandma, knitted mittens.
I don’t know how to knit but this “Give Away” is a great incentive to help me get started. Thanks for your generosity. I love to crochet afghans, dollies, baby blankets and hats. My last project made was a Beanie Beret. For my first knitting project, I plan to make some scarfs to give away as gifts.
I guess my answer would be skinny scarves because I can wear them year-round. Plus, they’re quick to make. I have several of them in different colors and styles.
my favorite thing to knit are socks. I gave a pair to my granddaughter who is 10 and her comment was “these feel amazing, can you make me more!” I love making and wearing these works of art.
This is just like one my Grandmother made for me as a wedding present in 1989. The pattern was already old then, but everyone in my family loved the plaid pattern and she made an afghan for each of us girls for a wedding present. I miss her so much, but feel close to her love with the afghan.
Right now I’m trying to finish all my crochet Christmas presents for THIS year. However, this would be a great present for NEXT year!
Mittens! Nothing quite like a nice pair of warm hand knit mittens!
What an intriguing pattern! I have a spinal cord injury so making cowl to keep my neck warm, shawls or comfort blankets to keep the pain away, and gifts for others to distract me from daily pain. Fiber is truly a lifesaver for me.
I crochet hats and sweaters because I do not knit.
i like knitting hats. There are so many you can make in so many different ways. Makes it fun to be creative.
Scarfs, hats, and mittens for the mitten tree.
Every year, I find something new to knit and it’s my favorite of the year. Amigurumi, scarves, hats, afghans, sweaters. I love them all. I usually have one or two projects which are long term and lots of small quick ones like socks. My brothers love it when I make them socks. In fact, that’s what all four of them are getting for Christmas this year.
i love to knit socks and also sweaters for my grandkids
I have a sweater that I knit of a nubby yarn probably from when I first began knitting that I love and I have made a few more of them that are similar.
I love to knit and crochet, I end up beautiful items to give as gifts.
My favorite wearable to knit is scarves. They usually have an easy to remember stitch pattern and don’t take forever to make. They also always make an outfit look finished.
I like knitting and crocheting scarves with soft and cuddly yarn. They are perfect to make up for those quick holiday gifts.
Hi,
I am just a knitting beginner. I have been working on a blanket. I do crochet however. I love making everything. I do so much want to win. It is hard to get what you want on a fixed income. Good luck everyone.
Fingerless mitts because my fingers are still free to pick up things.
My favorites so far have been fingerless mitts or slippers because they knit up so quick.
I am just learning to knit, so scarves are my favorite. 🙂 My favorite crochet patterns are scarves, hats, shawls and fingerless gloves. Quick holiday gifts, and fun to wear.
I crochet, but I want to learn to knit. My mom knits and has made me some wonderfully soft, warm hats that I love to wear.
I am knitting a teddy bear for a baby right now but I love crocheting blankets and knitting socks!
I have been knitting for about a year and a half. I have been really nervous to try some of the more intricate looking patterns, but slowly moving ahead. Love yarn crafts!!!!!
Hi, there! I LOVE this Plaid blanket! It is beautiful! I would enjoy making this one for the holidays.
I haven’t been knitting much lately, but have knit a lot of socks in the past. I love to see how the self striping yarn turns out.
Sweaters, because it feels like such an accomplishment!
My favorite wearable to knit is an infinity scarf because I find it very meditative and creative to come up with unique and relaxing patterns.
Baby things because they keep baby warm and can be used by future generations.
There is nothing like a big bulky scarf to wrap around my neck in the cold to keep me snuggly warm!
I never did get the hang of knitting, but my favorite wearable to crochet is scarves. They are quick and easy. I’ve also made western boot slippers. A bit more tricky, but turned out pretty good. :0)
My favorite wearable to knit is socks, toe up, magic loop, two at a time. They work up fast, are inexpensive, and are really cozy on your feet. It’s a small enough project to try out different stitches and color combinations.
I don’t knit…yet. It’s on my list to learn. However, I have crocheted most of my life. Because I live in a pretty warm climate, we don’t have as much opportunity to wear heavier crocheted items. However, I enjoy scarves, cowls, slippers and hats. I make a lot of afghan and throws, mostly as gifts. I’d love to try this plaid design, as it would be a new skill for me.
I like to knit hats for myself, but I LOVE my sweaters on my boys!
Scarves. They’re fast, easy and will fit anyone!
I like to knit blankets and hats
I am learning to Crochet and love the Plaid blanket above and look forward to making it. I love the Christmas Colors also!
I’m still learning knitting too, but I love to crochet baby gifts!
My favorite wearable knit is socks. Everyone wears socks at one time or another and there are a bajillion patterns to suit everyone’s tastes. Socks are also a very portable project!
I don’t knit but I crochet and since my grandson was born I have an all new passion for blankets. He loves to snuggle with his Nanie.
My favorite wearable to knit? Slippers! My Mom taught me how to knit them when I was a teenager, and it’s a pattern I keep in my heart. Wonderful memories.
Scarfs! Here in the Midwest you can wear different types year round.
I am new to knitting, I am making my first scarf now, so far so good, lol. I do crochet a lot, but I have always wanted to learn to knit so I went on youtube and started watching all the videos. Thanks for the chance to win the great prize.
I love to wear my knitted Scarves! You can do so many different designs and colors and try out new ideas, and they are so comfy to wear. Also, people can see your work!
hats!
I ave only mastered scarves… so they are my favorite lol
I love making socks because I like the thin yarn and they don’t take too long!
If I can ever get caught up on family baby blankets, my next project is to learn to knit. I would love to win all of this as it would definitely help me on my way. My family keep growing and they keep wanting my handmade baby blankets. It would make a wonderful Christmas present under my Christmas tree this year and I know it would make this handicapped GRANDMOTHER very happy!! Love the free patterns also!
I love making hats 🙂
I love to knit baby hats and mitts, and also crochet hoods with cowls, mitts, and scarves. I live in Wyoming, so it only makes sense that I like to make cold weather outdoor gear. Next I want to master sweaters!
This afghan is so beautiful. It is definitely going to be my next project.
I have been knitting and crocheting for about 35 years. Christmas time is my favourite time to knit and crochet because I can create and give as gifts.
As a family we are1st generation of Scottish decent, it has always been my hope to make a afghan of our family tartan.

Scarves and socks to keep warm in the winter!
I really like to wear knitted gloves. They are so dainty and soft, not too bulky but they keep you warm.
My favorite knit is a hat and scarf/wrap my mother made me. I know she made it with love, thinking of me as she was knitting. Despite her arthritis, she also made my husband a set. I cherish her handmade things for I know she won’t be able to do so for much longer.
Definitely gloves…they are so soft.
I am better at crocheting than knitting, so I would love to make something other than scarves and purses. I guess my favorite wearable to knit would be scarves because that is all I can do :).
I love to knit and crochet just about anything – I’d say scarves because they’re quick and afghans because they’re beautiful and remind me of all the comforts of home. This afghan is BEAUTIFUL! Whether I win or not, I’ll definitely be making this soon! 🙂
I’ve never learned to knit, but my favorite wearables to crochet are scarves and caps, because there are unlimited possibilities!
I am a self taught knitter and I love it. I even taught myself to read patterns which was not an easy task. I love to knit afghan’s of all kinds, but I made a ski sweater many year ago that I wore until it almost fell apart. It was so pretty, soft and comfortable.
I love to make scarves & cowls. Quick and easy, yet so warm for our winters!!
Cozy, super-soft socks are my favorite wearable because they are perfect at some point for most all seasons where I live.

I love to crochet anything! I have lots of afghans, slippers, hats, toys, scarves, etc. that I have crocheted to give as gifts and to donate to those who need them. Nothing beats being able to snuggle up with an afghan, wrap a scarf around your neck, put a hat on, slip on some socks or slippers you have made yourself.
My hat and scarf are my favorites
Scarves and caps bc I am cold-natured.
I am just starting to learn how to knit so right now scarves are my favorite wearable.

Knitted and crocheted cowls are my current favorites but I work up a variety of patterns all year long.
Scarves, everyone can use a scarf!
My current favorite wearable knit is a chunky wool cardigan that I recently finished. It is both warm and comfortable.

Do doggy sweaters count? Because right now Rosco, my little Chihuahua mix, loves wearing his new red sweater. In fact, when I tried to take it off of him yesterday he actually growled at me so I let him keep it on!
My favorite knit wearable is a vest as it is useful all year around
I have already made several crochet Afghans as Christmas presents, but would definitely make this one also. I think it’s beautiful!
I am crazy about cowls—to wear myself and to make for others.
My favorite is cable-knit sweaters. I just love seeing the pattern develop. One year I made the for all my family members for Christmas after I had a surgery that kept me home bound for months. It really helped me pass the time in an enjoyable way.
I love to make scarves and give scarves as gifts – I love to wear scarves because they can be simple & stylish.
I live in Southern California, so not too much of a need for bundling up. However, I love the slippers and socks. Cozy without making your feet too warm.
Well.. I dont know how to knit, but I do crochet! I have been working on 3 scarves and just finished on within the past month for Christmas presents. It’s been a learning process,mostly practicing making my edges even and also trying out different stitches and patterns.
Mittens! I love making socks and hats too, but nothing beats wool mittens in winter 🙂
scarf a girl can never have too many
i dont knit yet but i want to and we want to make hats and scarves

I love my scarves!
scarves, blankets and baby hats are my favorite to make.
My favorite thing to knit or crochet would be cowls. I love wearing them as well as giving them as gifts.
Crochet is my favorite. I look for patterns with a new challenge for me, whether it be a new stitch or using several colors. I use any leftover yarn to make lap-ghans or shawls for those in a nearby assisted living facility and baby blankets for needy new mothers. Crochet is very therapeutic/enjoyable for me because it is relaxing and the finished product is a gift that I hope will be appreciated by the one receiving it.

My husband was U.S. Air Force so I am glad to see the yarn helping the service members. Right now I am making for my grandson and Daughter and plan on many more things.
My favorite wearable is scarves/cowls. I’ve been really into the cowls recently, I think because they’re so popular right now. And, they work up quickly, making for great gifts or weekend projects. There’s nothing better than completing a project and feeling like I’ve accomplished something!
I can’t say I have a favorite….I love them all!!!
I enjoy crocheting scarves and blankets, because they are fun to make.
my favorites are vests and cardigans
My favorite is hat, scarf, fingerless mitten sets. I love how they keep me warm all winter!
After many years, I am back into crocheting and having a great time. First up a blanket!
Scarves, hats, and cowls. We live out in the country with no trees to block the wind. The wind can come roaring in at 35 – 40 miles an hour or more in the winter. It can get pretty cold heading out to the barn.
I like scarves, hats, and mittens, because they are quick to do, and always appreciated
I just recently found some awesome patterns for boot cuffs, fingerless mittens, headbands and of course hats. Guess what everybody is getting from me this year?
Right now my obsession is with hats. Slouchy, chemo, beanie, ridge, with pom poms, without pom poms, with ear flaps, with visors….all kinds. A couple of months ago my obsession was with fingerless mittens.
Love to win. Have been wanting to get back to crocheting and knitting since I recently retired.
I love to crochet hats/scarves for various charities
After about 20 years since my nana taught me how to knit and crochet, my favorite wearable to make is actually a recent discovery: baby/child sweaters. With many of my family, friends, and coworkers starting families, I saw a lot of handmade blankets at baby showers and thought the expectant mothers might appreciate something a little different. It takes a smidge of planning to figure out an age-range size to make based on the due date so the sweater wearing will fall at an appropriate time of year, but regardless of the size it’s a quick project where I can try out different patterns and stitches and be confident that it will fit the child at some point (and perhaps, when it’s been outgrown, fit a favorite stuffed animal). I can also make baby/child sweaters for charity: World Vision’s Knit for Kids and a local women’s shelter. My favorite so far, though, was a short sleeved lacy cardigan for my brother’s goddaughter (the couple’s first child).
Love crocheting blankets and Hats 🙂 so warm and cozy inside and out 😉
I love the plaid afghan. Perfect to the chill in te air here in Florida. Good luck to everyone and Merry Christmas.
I knit and crochet and just love all the free patterns I am finding lately. I don’t usually make anything for myself – I love to make hats/scarves/gloves for the local food pantry and sweaters and blankets for my family. If you could call it a wearable, I love my crocodile stitch purse I made this summer. It was my first foray into purses; I lined it and everything! 😎
Love the plaid afghan, I’m looking for an easy pattern using #5 yarn but will be warm, not an open pattern, any suggestions?
My favorite thing to knit and crochet are scarves. I love using soft and cuddly yarns. They feel like hugs! Warm, soft, snuggly hugs! 🙂
My favourite things to knit these days are toques for my two grandsons. The eldest’s favourite toque is the orange one I made him for his birthday (orange is his favourite colour). He was afraid to wear it to school, fearing he would loose it. I’ve now made a variety of “looseable” togues that he can wear to school!! lol
This is like saying to a mother, “Pick a favorite child.” I love making socks and have a lot of them, but I like to make cardigans and scarves, too. I guess you could say that my favorite is the project I’m working on at that moment.
I love crocheting scarves for myself, family and friends. There are so many styles to choose from and it’s fun to try out different patterns.
Sweaters and scarves – colorful, quick, and handy!
A scarf. I’m not very advanced yet so that’s all I can make at the moment
My favorite wearable knit is the Hitchhike shawlette designed by Martina Behm I made myself. It’s so soft and squishy. It makes the perfect scarf. I love it!!
my favorite thing to crochet is the hat pattern i came up with.
scarfs
My favorite wearable to crochet as a gift is a baby sweater with matching bonnet and booties. It feels really good to see the reaction of the recipients.
My favorite wearable for me is a crocheted basket weave scarf. The basket weave makes the scarf thicker, so it is twice as cozy. Also, the basket weave pattern looks so complicated when, in fact, it is easy to do!
Felted slippers. They are the best gifts and I have to make a pair for myself every other year!
When it comes to making wearables, I love to make sweaters. It does not matter whether I’m crocheting or knitting I enjoy using either method. I enjoy making pullovers the most, because they fully protect the upper torso during strong winds and cold temperatures. Another reason I love making sweaters is that I can make them during the summer, and not have to worry about getting overheated by a big heavy afghan. Most of all, I get a good feeling to know that when I finish the sweater, someone will be wearing it.
I like to make cardigan sweaters because you can never have too many of them – even though they take longer to do than hats and scarves. I’ve also made several aphgans for gifts, which, If used Like I do, is a “wearable”. 🙂
I love to make shawls and wraps. I am very “bohemian” and feel very artsy when flinging a shawl over my shoulders!
I love crocheting scoodies and hats for my busy grandkids.
Scarfs for myself and my daughters.
Nice cozy blankets to snuggle with my husband.
I absolutely love to wear my crocheted hooded capelet. It has this old fashioned feel and is so warm in the winter. I made a pair of matching gloves and now my hands are just as toasty as my shoulders.
I love making many items to help the people of my small town. The wearable items we make are hats, booties, and blankets for the Pregnancy Center; hats for the homeless and the cancer patients; blankets, hacky sacs, frisbies, and sweaters for the Child Advocacy Center; and lap throws for the nursing homes. It is so much fun to see the thrilled faces of those that we deliver the items to.
Scarves! The work up quickly, and with three kids under seven – I don’t have a lot of free time on my hands. They are fun so much to wear and you can make one to go with any outfit in your wardrobe. Not only that, they make GREAT gifts. Happy holidays!
First scarf I spun and knitted. Alpaca, warm and soft.
I love to crochet scarves! They are quick and an awesome way to change up my wardrobe!
Love to knit sweaters for winter. It’s so easy to layer them!
My favorite wearable item is the hooded sweater that I knit 5 years ago. It was only the 3rd item that I had ever knit after learning to knit less than 6 years ago.
My favorite item to make is always slippers because it is the first thing I learned to make with my Grannie. I have such loving memories of yarn and Grannie and it comes back with every slipper I make.
My favorite wearable is the simple crochet beanies that I make during the holidays. Next year, after I have my baby, I plan on starting a Hats for Hearts group in my area to make fun, colorful, and warm hats for the children in the local children’s hospital and at St. Jude. I started making the hats with the eyelash yarn and the children love them!
Hats! They are not only stylish, but I love having hats handy for covering up a bad hair day, or bed head on those early morning drives to drop husband off at work so I can take the car for the day
Socks, my feet are always cold and I love to knit so it’s the perfect project.
I have been the crocheting for over 40 years I just now started making mittens and my favorite things to wear are mittens and neck scarf or snuggling under an afghan.
My favorite wearable to crochet are hats and scarves. I’m going to need to convert another room into a closet if I keep making the hat/scarf sets. I just love mixing them up with all of my coats and giving them as gifts.
I like to make eternity scarves. There are many different patterns available and they make great gifts.
I crocheted my first sweater shawl and love to wear it. People asked me where I bought it! Nice to say that it was handmade by me!
My favorite wearable would definitely have to be a wrap because you can take them from an elegant accessory to one with jeans and a t-shirt. They’re so versatile!
Still trying to learn to crochet wearables. a Hat is the noly thing I have managed to make thatis actually wearable!
I like to crochet scarves. They work up quick.
I’m a beginner, and so far I’ve only made scarves, but I am wanting to make baby clothes. We are expecting our first grandchild in early 2015.
I do not knit, but I do crochet.
I love shawls, the different patterns are so beautiful, and of course, you can do them in any color you prefer. I am getting ready to start one very soon.
My favorite wearable to crochet is a tunic! I love the fact that I can wear it over a tank top in summer, and then over a long sleeved (thermal) top in the winter. A tunic is so versitile and they work up quickly!
Scarves – because there are so many beautiful patterns and they can be crocheted in whatever color you want!
I like to crochet hats mittens and scarves. I live in North Dakota and it gets very cold here : )
My favorite crocheted wearables are slouchy berets in a shell stitch. I have 2, one in cotton and one in a wool blend, and have made many others for gifts. My favorite knit wearables are infinity scarves knit on circular needles.
I am new to crochet and I have made afghans and blankets. I made my first crochet hat and scarf this week and I love it.
Scarves. They can be worn with so many different things and in so many different ways. Pus, I don’t have to worry about size when I giving them as gifts.
I like both, although only know how to crochet so all of my things are crocheted.
I love to crochet caps for a juvenile emergency shelter. I try to have one for every child at Christmas. My favorite wearable is my stole.
I am fairly new to the fiber arts, but I have crocheted baby blankets and neck cowls (infinity scarves). My next project is some warm, woolly socks for my DH as Indiana winters are mighty chilly.
A scarf, because it is easiest, and I am a newby.
My favorite wearable to crochet/knit is scarves. I love to give scarves to charity and it is just perfect for gifts! I also love to spa clothes for the ladies.
Caps for the kids at an Juvenile Emergency Shelter are my favorite thing to crochet. I try to have one for each child at Christmas. My favorite wearable is my black stole.
my favorite wearable to knit would have to be socks!
I like to crochet booties (slippers). I have arthritis, fibromyalgia and neuropathy that make my feet really hurt, especially when they’re cold. So I do heavy booties with double or triple yarn then make an extra sole from plastic yarn I cut and sew it to the bottom. They’re wonderful for keeping my feet warm.. Much of the other things I make I give to family and friends or give to charity (preemie caps, etc.).
Have just discovered this year that I LOVE cowls. Have made three so far, and kept me all!
my favorite wearables are definitely my scarves – I always seem to end up making a few new ones every year to keep me toasty warm, and usually end up giving some away as gifts as well.
My favorite winter knit and/or crochet item to make and wear is a mobius. It adds warmth in many different ways as a hood, doubled as a cowl or turtle neck (depends on length and thickness), as a scarf without adding bulk under coats or jackets (plus it’s not easy to slide off like a regular straight scarf), and it drops down over my shoulders when I’m in a very chilly place. Just a really functional piece.
My favorite wearable is a hat I crocheted with yarn I was sent from England also the first hat I ever made
I love knitting Aran sweaters, I just love the patterns you can make, but I’m knitting a cowl in super quick bulky wool for my sons girlfriend at the moment, and enjoying how fast it is growing
The plaid scarf is so cute! I’ve been nervous to add additional colors, outside of multicolored yarn.
My favorite wearable to knit is fingerless gloves because my hands get cold. They also don’t take too long to knit.
I have been working with fiber arts for many years and have a large family. This time of the year I love to make hat, mittens and scarf sets to give as gifts to friends and family. Some are crocheted and others are knitted. Recently my sister bought me a set of round looms and I knit my brother slippers to keep him warm when he has his cancer treatment.
I love knitted socks! I am new at making them and it is awesome to be able to pick out a really cool yarn and pattern make my own warn pair.

I love making sweaters. They’re so snuggly and warm, like a knitted hug.
My favorite wearable crochet items are my hat scarves and glove sets. I enjoy making these for my grandchildren.
I love to knit scarves & cowls, although I rarely wear one myself. They’re simple and relaxing. I give them away as gifts!
Scarves! They are wonderful statement accessories! They can be short or long or infinity style or a cowl! And the best reason is that it’s up to your imagination to create a one of a kind scarf with amazing colors, fibers and texture, not to mention they are quick to either knit or crochet!
I love making character hats for kids, the way their face lights up when they see it and put it on is priceless.
A crochet scarf is my favorite wearable!

I can never get enough sweaters. I just love everything about them.
I am knitting hats for my grandsons as they will be moving after Christmas to the east coast from.the west coast. Have to keep their heads and ears warm
I have to say scarves. They can be simple or difficult. They can be short or long. They can be wide or narrow. They add a “POP” of color. If it’s cold you can wrap them around, if it’s just cool they can hang around. Merry Christmas!!
I love making and wearing crocheted hats.

Hats for sure!! I’ve made a dozen I’m sure, can’t go anywhere without a handmade hat.

I crochet, my favorite is hats, beanies, there are so many different ways to decorate then. Colors and shapes and characters, I have even recently taught myself how to personalize them with names too (graphghan style). They also are not overly time consuming so with my busy family that’s my go-to project.
I love my newsboy hat, scarf and matching fingerless glove I made this year. My sisters all loved them so much I am in the process of making 4 more sets for their Christmas presents 🙂
I love my hat that I just finished, also the gloves that I made last year!
My favorite right now is infinity scarves. As the weather gets colder I love having my neck warm and since I can make my own (and do!) I never have a problem matching an outfit!

My favorite wearables to crochet has always been scarves, yet I find myself enjoying making hats, sweaters, & gloves, as of lately. Crochet is simply a labor of love, for me, & I love the smiles that my projects bring, either by wearing & using them myself, or giving or selling them for gifts.

Slippers. My feet are always cold and nothing beats a pair of warm hand made pair.

My fav wearable to make would be scarves & hats. Scarves I can make almost in my sleep & I have challenged myself to make hats this year as Christmas gifts. I’ve got one done & have a request for another in same pattern. NOTE: the plaid blanket looks #awesome & would be great to add to my bucket list. It won’t get done this year, but I “carry over”!! 🙂
Definitely my cowl ! Warm and toasty and Gorgeous Lion brand Homespun yarn !
Sashay Scarves….they are so easy and quick to make.
I love to try out new patterns, so pretty much anything that catches my eye . However I must confess, I love making baby booties the most as they are compact to carry with me when I work for my down time, and they’re so darn cute!
My favorite is baby blankets for my grandchildren. They seem to love them and I love that they always have a part of me with them.
opps wrong post.earlier. My favorite thing to make and wear are knitted cowls and infifnity scarves. just learning to knit and love how they feel.
I love making fun hats for family and friends. At the moment I am making a beard to go on a viking hat
I love to knit and crochet hats and cowls. They are quick and easy and make great gifts.
My most favorite loveable items are slippers and socks cause they remind me of my mom. She gave us a pair of either set for Christmas.
My mother crocheted me a vest when I was younger and I wore it all of the time. It was brown and tied in front. Wish I still had it.
My favorite wearable items are crocheted headbands.

My favorite wearable to knit or crochet is a lace shawl or wrap – one size fits all and everyone can use one!
My favorite thing to crochet is afghans – everyone can use an afghan to snuggle up in and keep warm even in the warmer climates because they still have chilly nights. I have yet to attempt making a plaid afghan however so would love to try this one.
My favorite item is slippers because they keep my feet toasty and warm.
Hats, lots of hats to donate for babies.
I am a beginner, so right now it’s just scarfs. Thanks!

I like scatves because they are not to complicated and warm in the winter
Scarf. I made one that looks like a fox wrapped around my shoulders. So adorable.
scarves that are made with love
I’ve made a couple of prayer shawls for my grandmother before she passed away, and I’m working on improving on my technique and learning more stitches so I can learn how to do some of the more elaborate wraps. Until them, I am stuck with my wider scarves!
I like to crochet afghans because no matter who you give them to, it’s like wrapping your arms around them and giving them a big hug every time they use them.
shawls but its never really really cold in Alabama but gets cool
I have started a sweater for myself, but felt overwhelmed with it and it’s now a WIP, set aside! I love making hats – so many cute patterns and differences with just a stitch or color change!
Afghans are great for the cold and snowy days we get because they are like a warm hug!
I love HATS! All colors, sizes and styles; they make such great quick gifts and the variety is boundless.
I love to crochet fingerless mittens.. They are quick and my daughter loves to match them to her outfits.
My favorite wearable to crochet would have to be crochet socks. The crochet socks that I make are heavier than normal store bought socks, which make them perfect for winter months. These wonderful socks are also extremely comfortable.
It’s hard to pick just one but if I have to, I’d say my favorite is fingerless gloves. I like to layer them over short gloves for a contrasting look and to keep my fingers warm in the car
I like to crochet cowls, scarves and fingerless gloves. They are easy to work up and look good as well.
I have a green knit vest that I keep handy for when I feel a bit of a chill. It’s long enough to cover my back and hips and light enough to not smother me in heat.
Ponchos because they are cozy, comfy, and easy!
Cowls. There are so many great cowl patterns lately.
love knitted socks and hats my favorite winter items
I like to knit hats, scarves and mittens, this winter I have been making cowls too, they are so nice to keep a person warm.
My absolutely favorite wearable are handmade crocheted socks! They are so comfy, and the “bumps” of the crochet stitches are like a mini foot massage…. Socks are amazingly portable projects. And the sock weight yarns come in a fantastic array of colors both solid and colorways. I love them and always have one or two sock projects going.
My absolute fave is my hat its a Jayne hat made if you know what it is you also know why its my fave 🙂
I love my knitted scarf made from changes yarn using the pattern on the label.
My poncho.. every time I wear it I get so many compliments and it’s so warm and comfy.
My favorite wearable to knit are socks. There are so many patterns, so many techniques, and they don’t take much yarn.
I like scarves as they keep you warm.
I love to knit shawls. I can learn a new technique on each one. They are also fun to wear and can spice up an outfit.
I have several sweaters that I knit that qualify as my favorite.
My favorite wearable knit is the first shawl I ever made. I gave it to my great grandmother and when she passed away, she left it to me. It’s my favorite because it reminds me of her.
I was just saying to a friend i wish i knew how to make the plaid pattern!! This is the answer!!
I live in New England so winters are very cool and snowy. I made hats with matching scarves for all 3 of my sister’s and me. We use them every winter.
I love to knit my “critters” . The yarn just becomes a randome shape, i stuff it, then put on the eyes or antenna, feet, wings. The best part is when they get “adopted” and the smiles that go with them…..
my favorite wearable is a tie between a pony tail hat i made for myself and my black and white harry potter scarf my mom made me.
I love to crochet handbags and makeup clutches for my other 3 sisters and my nieces as well as something special for my grandson and grandaughter. CHRISTMAS IS ABOUT GIVING. Opening your heart and soul to a homeless family and or veteran with some homemade gifts from your heart will 4ever be felt throughout the year. REMEMBER to feed a homeless person this Christmas and or give them a scarf and hat set.
Good luck to all and Happy Holidays.
If I could wear a blanket, I would! But since I can’t, I will stick with a thick and cozy cowl and maybe some fleece lined mitts.
Granny square Owl crocheted scarves, love making them.
Hat because I’m a new knitter, and it’s darn cold out. Been making the Lomond hat from http://littletheorem.blogspot.com/2013/04/lomond-hat.html?m=1
I’ve made six of these as gifts so far.
Scarves – they’re fast and fun.
I have not yet learned to knit or crochet, but I would love to make hats
I haven’t knitted in years. I usually crochet. I love fisherman sweaters, but they’re so expensive, that I decided to try and knit one myself. To reaquaint myself with knitting again i knitted a couple of hat for my twin sons which they love. I’m working on my sweater now and it’s going pretty good. I will try and post a picture when it’s done.
My fav is a crocheted hat scarf to keep warm.
My favorite wearable to crochet is scarves. They are fast and a great way to try out a new stitch without committing to a large project.
My favorite wearable to crochet is the cardigan I made last Christmas for my grandaughter. It was made with a multicolor variegated yarn and looks great on her.
Currently my favorite is a basket weave knitted cowl. My first was made out of #3 silky texture yarn. It feels soooo good around my neck. I am making several more for Christmas presents. Doesn’t take much yarn so is good for reducing my odds and ends stash. Might even try alternating colors by row or multiple rows…it’s a thought!
My favorite wearable to crochet is a shawl or scarf/cowl.
I love knitting Nordic style pullovers
I love to make sweaters! It’s such a great feeling when I finish a project and it goes well and fits.
Mittens. It gets cold here.
My favorite wearable to knit is a hat. It doesn’t take a long time to make.
Love this blanket!!!
When I first learned to crochet I couldn’t get that first row of chain stitch figured out. Then I found a pattern for Mary Jane slippers that starts with a circle and I fell in love! I love making them and don’t get tired of the pattern. I’ve figured out how to make them in varying sizes by changing the yarn and hook size and the women in my family love them. I probably knit more than I crochet but it’s my favourite wearable pattern in either knit or crochet!
I love to crochet infinity scarfs. My daughter-in-laws love them and I am starting to actually just come up with my own patterns.
my favorite is my scarf that started out as an afghan….
Hats. Definetly hats. I love how you can change them to whatever mood you happen to be in!
I learnt to knit at ten years old. My left handed Uncle taught me a right handed child how to knit a square for the Red Cross. In the last 60 years I have taught 8 years of Brownies to knit left handed till I was reminded that none of the girls were left handed so I had to learn how to do it right handed I was surprised to find this out myself as it had not occurred to me that I was doing it..lol I was also a tester for them in our area so they could collect a badge… I have knit and crochet ..sweaters ..afghans… hats… scarves…. mitts ….socks ..dish clothe…..many baby layettes and have lately been having a blast knitting and crocheting 18 ” American Girl size doll clothes.
My favorite wearables to crochet are baby clothes, hats and booties. I’ve crocheted footed onesies and overalls for my grandsons. Crocodile stitch baby booties are my absolute favorite.
Wristers or fingerless gloves. Everyone has a phone in their hands these days, so no one wants to cover their fingers!
I love to wear hats and gloves.
I love hats especially silly ones
I crochet, and my favorite (right now) is . . . . hats!
I love making Infinity scarves. They are quick projects for gifts and can be done up in so many different yarns…the possibilities are endless!
My favorite thing to make is infinity wraps. they go with anything at any time of the year.
I have been eyeing this pattern for a while now. It is perfect for the season.
I like to knit and crochet scarves and cowls, great for stash reducing and I can work on them when I am on the go!
Hats! Because they are quick and you can never have too many. One for every outfit. And hey, it’s cold here!
Knitted sweaters!
I learned how to crochet from my Irish grandmother and my mother started teaching me how to knit and other crafts before she passed away. I’m not too good with knitting but I took to crochet. I love making things like skirts, hats, scarves, vests, shrugs and whatever else I can find a pattern for for family and friends. I actually knitted a vest and a long sleeve sweater without using a pattern, just from things my mom taught me. I actually wear them and have gotten many compliments!
My favorite wearable is fingerless gloves. I have small hands and I am always taking off regular gloves because they are too large and in the way. Fingerless gloves with a mitten flap are extra warm.
My favorite wearables to crochet are scarves. There is so many beautiful patterns and yarns you can just go nuts and besides everyone love a beautiful scarve
My favorite winter wearable are beanies and scarfs. Without them this winter I’d be freezing since my hair needed to be all cut off.
My favourite thing to crochet is a pair of flower-on-the-toe slippers. It does not require a pattern. If you can crochet a square dishcloth (the edges each equalling the length of your foot), and if you can crochet a flower, then you can make up a pair of these in an evening. You can sew up the heel and then sew up the toe any number of ways. I change it up. No two pairs are the same. But I always sew a crochet flower on the toe. So cute. Somebody always wears them.
My favorite wearable were the baby booties and matching hat I made as a baby shower gift for my friend. Next in line would be the matching slouchy hat and fingerless gloves I made for my niece. I have yet to make anything for myself.
I love making hats and cuffs. Haven’t braved a mitten yet but did make some slipper socks for my 2 year old.
just relearning so I am going with a scarf, loose knobby knit hides my mistakes
My favorite wearable right now is cowl scarves. They are beautiful and warm. I’ve been crocheting but may have to get out my knitting needles!
Wow, I’m in total envy of anyone making socks or sweaters. I’m still on scarves.
My favorite wearable is a scarf made from leftovers! I love to change hook sizes as my scraps vary in weight: bigger hooks for lighter weight, smaller hooks for bigger weight. It turns out so colorful and cozy, especially with multicolored fringe on the ends!!!
winter hat becos it is easy to do
i love sweaters and scarves
I Love sweaters especially when they r huge. They are just so comfortable
Hats and scarves the finishing touch. I am not great at it yet
I love knitting anything, but I do favour the baby blankets they are so soft and cuddly. I have knitted wedding gowns too, that was an exciting project as I also designed it.
I like 2 crochet hats 4 grandkids 🙂
I’ve been making headbands with cables that everyone seems to love.
My first pair of knitted socks came from my aunt as a gift when I was in the hospital. They kept my feet so warm!!! Knitted socks are like hugs for your feet and that is why they are my favorite thing to knit!
It would have to be my hats or fingerless gloves. I can’t wear the scarves I make – they make me too hot. So I give them away!
I like to crochet many kind of projects, mostly hats and scarfs for my lovings and me. Lately I crochet doilies small and large in order to decorate for Christmas and then to make curtains for my bed room and living room. I like crochet very much!!
It is my winter scarf. Very cold here and it is great to have my scarf to help keep me warm.
I love to crochet scarves and big chunky shawls. I travel for business and a scarf project is portable. It helps me stay connected with my family or friend that I am making the scarf for while I am gone. That is a beautiful blanket design, by the way. The idea would also work well as a big shawl. Just might try that.
Afghans and scraves.
The only thing I’ve ever crocheted for myself was a pair of slippers and love wearing them, but I love crocheting hats! Hats are one of the first things I learned how to make, so they are still my “go to” project to work on. I make them and give them away.
My Favorite Wearable Hand Stitched at the moment has to be any afghan I happen to be crocheting, because as it grows it keeps me warm, my favorite part of crocheting.
My favorite to knit or crochet is hats as well. I can knit really warm ones for veterans or my son-in-law who works outside. I can knit cute little chemo caps to make cancer patients feel better and keep their heads warm. I can knit cupcake hats for little kids or perhaps animal faces too. There’s a great variety of hats to create and they don’t take that much time to complete. No knitting wedding gowns for me.
I love making cowls. They’re quick, easy and everyone to whom I’ve given one seems to love ’em!
I love to wear the hats I’ve knitted (or crocheted). I have a suitcase full of them and just select the one that fits my mood. Always looking to fashion new moods.
My favorite wearable knit is my first scarf and hat that I made last year!
My favorite wearable is the first cardigan I ever made. It’s long and warm and has deep pockets. It’s also loaded with the mistakes a first timer makes. But it’s mine and no one else has one like it!
Scarves
I like crocheting scarfs, because everyone can use a scarf when it gets cold.
I like knitting hats….I always need something on my head to stay warm in winter ….
I love to crochet and wear scarves. I wear them all winter.
I like making a lot of things but my favorite this was an afghan it was old fashion it had hearts and house I actually maded 2 and ended up giving them but away to events to raffle off for a charity. So day I will make another one for me. Thanks have a wonderful holiday
For me knitting and crocheting is like calorie free cheese cake. A little slice of Paradise, tranquil and healing. I love learning new patterns, pushing beyond what I think my abilities are. Sometimes it takes many tries. But what a pleasure when I succeed.
Family and friends enjoy my efforts. This season I am finishing more ruffled scarves. All the wonderful colors feel like working with candy. Fingerless mittens are the in thing with my daughter and her friends. Come spring, when it’s still cold out I will begin working with sunny colors for camisoles. And maybe a new sweater just for me.
I like crocheting slippers 🙂 I’m always cold and they are warm and soft. I use the thick soft baby yarn and they are nicer than socks sometimes. If I keep my feet warm, I can usually stay warm.
poncho`s and scarfs! love wearing them
I love to knit or crochet baby shower gifts. The look on a mom to be as she incisions her New baby using my gift makes all the work worthwhile !
Scarves and socks are my fav to knit! They can express what i am feeling for the day!
I love to crochet fisherman pattern afghans and have made several for family and friends. I’ve also taught myself to knit and have made some sweaters for my nieces when they were little, but not as comfortable knitting as I know I still have so much to learn!!
My favorite is my scarves… so soft and warm and home made!
I love to crochet and can’t stand not to have a hook in my hand so the more things I can make the better, therefore I crochet scarves, hats, mittens, and afghans. I can see results sooner, then can’t wait to get to the next project.
My favorite wearable to crochet is scarves and hats. I love to crochet them because they are fast and I can watch television or listen to music and be done in no time!!! You really can’t go wrong when you give a hat or scarf to someone who lives where it’s really cold in the winter!
I made a chunky knit scarf that I love.
Scarves……you can make one to match everything!!!
Slipper socks or my cream hat with a big purple flower are by far my favorite things. I make hats all day long but rarely get to make anything for myself so my socks and hat are so special to me and they show off my business!
My favorite is the lap blanket I made with the popcorn balls throughout! I’m also make a pretty chunky infinity scarf!
My favorite thing to knit is the scarf. I am new to knitting and have knitted 2 scarfs and I am working on my first infinity scarf. I m looking forward to knitting hat’s, vests, and so much more. I just love watching the yarn make the stitches and the stitches grow into a useable item. Kitting it just Fun…
I was planning on crocheting a poncho but wasn’t that pleased with it . Didn’t want my chunky yarn to go to waste so did a scarf and slouch hat. Now when I walk the dogs I feel like I’m “stylin” plus it’s warm.
My favorite wearable is a scarf because of the versatility. The warmth provided is great and it is a terrific accessory to any outfit.
My Aunt Alberta taught me how to crochet years ago and my then new husband said he could do that (not). I have been crocheting the last 55 years and love to crochet lots of new patterns. Isn’t life grand?
My favorite wearables at the moment are the hat and mitts set my dear friend in Scotland designed & knit for me, and my Nutmeg sweater I recently finished. 🙂
I picked up finger and arm knitting very recently and I love it! So currently it would have to be scarves and blankets… And yes, I personally consider blankets as wearables as I will be more apt to wrap a blanket around me instead of grabbing a sweater lol
My favorite items to crochet are christening gowns, blankets, baby apparel, hats, shawls, scarves, and baby shoes. I love to make these for gifts. I feel handmade items are much more heartfelt than store bought. We, fiber artists, create with our soul. Every stitch is made with love, the love for the art and for the people who receive the gifts.
Whatever seems new and fun. I’m learning to crochet at the moment so i keep looking for interesting patterns to push myself and learn more and more each time.
I have crocheted for 48 years and mostly created afghans and baby blankets. However, with scarves being so popular I now crochet scarves too, so scarves are my favorite wearable to create. The best reason is because I can take along the small amount of yarn needed to make a scarf while I travel.
I’m planning on making a knitted vest after Christmas for myself. Right now I am busy making hats and scarves for everyone.
My favorite wearable is a scarf because I can make one in an hour if i feel like something new.
My favorite wearable is my knitted in the round sweater my mom made me. It has a combo of different stitches and it is just beautiful! I learned alot of my knitting, and crocheting from her
My favorite wearable are my knitted scarves. I’ve made lots and lots of them and change them daily when I’m out and about. Get lots of compliments on the colors and textures of the scarves. My Mom wears a thick scarf I made for her out of peacock colors that keeps her very warm and she’s had numerous compliments on this scarf and so far won’t trade it for any other.
My finger-less gloves …..they keep me warm and i am still able to do everything i need to with out the fabric getting in the way
My favorite thing for wear can be knit or crocheted 🙂 I love cowls, they’re glorious. I’ve made many and given many away. It’s quite satisfying to have a toasty neck on a cold day and to also have the option the cover half your face in a particularly nippy day.
I have a Crochet Cardigan I made for my website to sell but loved it so much I kept it for myself.
I liked knitting baby booties for my niece
I never learned how to knit or crochet but I love wearing scarves.

My favorite is slipper socks. If I’m home, I’m wearing a pair 🙂
My favorite wearable is my scarf because it was the first thing I ever learned how to crochet.
My Grandmother taught me to crochet when I was 8 years old, which was over 50 years ago. I still have some of the steel crochet hooks she taught me with. I also have the book, which was learn to crochet, knit, and tat, and embroidery. The first item I ever made is the doily from the pattern in the book.
My favorite item to crochet is scarves for the grandkids since it gets pretty cold in the winter when they wait for the school bus.
Love my new winter hat. I made it with a hand-dyed, handspun yarn, so it’s totally unique!
Brand-new to crochet, so I haven’t made many wearables yet- but I really like my scarves!
Hats! With how cold it’s been they have been wonderful! Like my handmade so much better then store bought!
The wearable I most like is my sweater I crocheted.
My favorite wearable knits are scarves.
I love making ponytail holders. They use up all kinds of scraps, and I have a huge basket of them on my vanity table. No matter what I’m wearing, I have a hair doodad to match, dressy or casual! And they make wonderful stocking stuffers.
I love my slipper socks. So cozy and warm and I have extras to share with friends and family that visit.
My favorite is to crochet beanie hats and slouchy hats. They are easy to make and take no time to whip them up!! I have given them to many as gifts, esp. for my little cousins!!

I love warm sweaters, I crochet them. They keep you so warm in the cold northern winters, and there are so many styles to create, not to mention so many yarns and colors. My next favorite thing would be dish cloths, they work up so quickly, and I have a wonderful cotton pattern.
Hi, merry Christmas to you all,,, I made a monkey hat, it was many parts but easy enough to do but when I finished it was great, funny and loved by everyone especially my daughter-in-law. She used it for the finishing touch for her Monkey Halloween costume and everyone at her work thought it was perfect. I loved making things but this was especially nice!!!!
I love wearing the summer weight scarf my mother made. It’s beautiful!

My favorite wearable to crochet is slippers. There are just so many adorable slippers to choose from for my children
My favorite is a shawl. I can make it in any of the diverse ways there is and it is a Versatel garment to suit most occasions 🙂
A nice warm fuzzy soft sweater
Shawls and scarves because they can be worn so many different ways.
Lately I am on a shawl phase.
My favorite would have to be hats! I love making them and wearing them 🙂
i am realtively new to crocheting. I taught myself in about three months. I still do not know everything yet but I am slowly working my way up. Right now my favorite things to crochet are baby buntings. I made the hungry caterpillar and in the process of making a owl one for my sister’s baby. I love taking pictures of the newborns in their buntings. I also like to make hats and headbands.
My friend & I was just discussing about how cool weather makes us want to crochet. Today, I am making a scarf.
A hairband for my daughter is the easiest and quickest to knit or crochet and can easily make it with remaining leftover threads
I love handknit hats – they’re so much warmer and nicer than regular hats!
Neckwraps because they are fun and easy
I enjoy knitting afghans as I envision a family member snuggly wrapped in a hug of not only the rich hued warmth of the soft yarn but the warmth of the love that was embued into every stitch!
I enjoy crocheting scarves and hats. I’ve made them for my great-nieces and nephew and mostly for children’s charities. I love being able to make different sizes and all kinds of colors!
My favorite crochet wearable is my headband and matching fingerless gloves! I get many people complimenting me on it and also telling me they don’t have patience with any crafts. i love the peaceful feeling I get while creating my crochet projects.
I have a scarf that I am rarely without during the winter. It has become part of my personality!
I love crocheting myself headbands of every color. I also love homemade crocheted mittens that I make to keep my hands warm. I also love making afghans to give away to those in need but also to my family and friends. Crocheting is my get away craft that gives me peace and joy. I also see the joy of the recipients of my crafts.
