A Big, Cabled Hat that’s Quick to Knit

It’s crunch time, knitters! I’m trying to finish up the one big holiday knitting project I’ve been working on in the next day or two, which will leave a couple of days for teacher gifts or some last-minute knitting before the holiday.

If you just decided you want to knit some holiday gifts this year, check out the Braided Cable Beanie from Prem Knits. I just saw a version of this on Instagram the other day (worked in Malabrigo, so you know it caught my eye) and I think this would be a great fast knit for a woman in your life who needs a hat.

The whole hat is these big, chunky cables, which are really quick and easy to work. Knit it in a solid aran or chunky yarn, or use a colorful yarn to play in the twists. Either way it’s a great gift project or something to knit up for yourself.

You can find the pattern on Ravelry for $4.99.

One of my missions as a crafter is to encourage people to use what they have to make something great. Accumulating stash is fun, but at some point you realize that you have more than you can ever use, and that can be really overwhelming.

A couple of years ago I wrote a book called How to Declutter Your Craft Supplies, which is all about why it’s so hard to let go of stash and how to deal with it. This is something I still struggle with and I’m in the midst of cleaning out my office/studio yet again (seriously, how can I still have so much stuff when I’m not buying anything new?).

If you’re gearing up for spring cleaning (or fall cleaning!) you need to check out the Get Organized Toolkit, of which my book is a part. This collection of more than 60 ebooks, courses, guides and printables will help you organize your home, business, mind and life.

There are so many great products here, from decluttering guides to advice on how to organize your book collection, cleaning up your iPhone and dealing with mental clutter. You’ll learn all about minimalism, get a planner to help you stay on top of home maintenance and learn how to build a capsule wardrobe, among other things. It’s a great way to get a lot of helpful advice all at once to help you lead a more organized and peaceful life.

The bundle is on sale through March 29. You can read more about it on my blog or go here to buy. And if you have specific questions about decluttering craft supplies or using your stash I would love to hear them!
