6 small things...

[livedinalaska]

My friend is having a Home and Garden Party... and you know you are obligated to buy things when you go to those. We'll I've decided to get this "Let it Snow Muffin Pan" and fill the cups with 6 small crocheted items for my $20 Christmas gift exchange for work.

 

Any suggestions on what to make? I thought of making 6cupcakes, or 6 small ornaments for each. Or dishcloth, 2 hotpads, kitchen scrubbie... I don't want it to take too much time.

 

Links to easy patterns would be appreciated too. I can definitely seek and find things, but thought someone might have a great idea since I'm just struggling to find the perfect thing.

 

I'd prefer to make everything in Red Heart WW, or Sugars n Cream cotton.

 

Thanks in advance!

I would fill them with round hot pads tied to sit in the tin like muffins. I think hot pads never go wrong and not everyone likes the dishcloths.

GREAT ideas! Thanks! I will definitely use some of these!

 

And Darski, that diaganol hotpad has become one of my favorites. I think you added it to another thread for someone's suggestion!

Well I didn't want her to think I meant the other kind.

I just thought of something quick, small, easy, and you can use up lots of colors of left over yarns.

 

Kristie MN here at Crochetville put out a free pattern for a candy kiss, like a Hershey's chocolate kiss. The pattern is only about a dozen small rounds. You could do up a batch of kisses in numerous different colors for the holiday. They'd be adorable.

Maybe some small Christmas Ornaments to hang on the tree. These should all fit in the pan holders.
