Every year around this time, I take a look at who all is left on my gift list and start panicking. Since my greatest skill when it comes to knitting lies in procrastination, it’s always great to have a few “last minute” quick knitting projects up my sleeve just in case. While there’s still quite some time before the holiday season officially begins, it’ll be here before you know it. Don’t get caught scrambling to finish your knits at the last minute this year. Besides, it’s always nice to be able to sit back and relax with some stress-free knits once the craziness of holiday knitting is over.
If you’ve got a few stragglers left on your list this year and need a little help, try some of these lovely little knitted accessories on for size. For the coffee lovers in your life, why not try the classic knit cup cozy patterns? For teens, bring a little innovation and knit jewelry or other beloved accessories. From knitted appliques to knit cowl patterns, you’re to find some great inspiration here.
Beautiful Knitted Applique Patterns
Incorporate even more of your personality into all of your knitting projects by adding beautiful knitted appliques.

This year it’s going to be cowls, ear warmers, slippers, and fingerless mitts.
I’ve been knitting a lot of hats/mittens/scarves for charity again this year.
I love fingerless gloves/arm warmers.
Cowls, hats, fingerless mitts, and wash/dish cloths!
