Sock yarn isn’t just for socks anymore! Veteran knitter Judith Durant has selected 101 original patterns for items that can be created from just a single skein of sock yarn—adorable baby clothes, warm mittens and hats, beautiful scarves, original jewelry, bags, cozies—even a dog sweater and a lampshade! Contributed by yarn shops and designers throughout North America, the patterns are fetching and fun to knit. Some knit up in less than three hours, others make creative use of sock yarn leftovers, and several make heirloom-worthy gifts.
The Green Grocery Bag Challenge is a project to encourage sewists to wrap their holiday gifts in reusable cloth grocery bags, thus reducing the amount of wrapping paper entering the waste stream while simultaneously getting multi-use bags into the hands of consumers. Please include Mother Earth in your holiday plans.

my daughter just got her first sewing machine, she is 6 and is already loving it. we would love the sewing school book!
Like the dog bed, but I still think my old mattress pad folded and stuffed into a pillowcase is easier to throw into the wash. Maybe Rosie, my pug, will be able to convince me to use my sewing skills for her.

Love, love, love the scottie dogs.
I want a Scotty dog!!! so cute
my kids will be getting a copy of Sewing School!
I got so excited when I saw that “Jen” won, and “Jennifer” too! Then I realized there were probably a 100 entries with that name! Ugh!!! Silly me! It was very exciting for a moment or two though!
I love the collar and leash idea. Our Geeb will love it.
That collapsible dog-bowl would make the perfect gift for my daughter’s godmother’s dog!
such great gifts for the pet lovers on my list!
i love them all!
Cute stuff love the scottie dog. That travel pet dish is cool.
If I make the pet bed for my cats do you think they will stop sleeping in the baby’s car seat?!? Thank you for the idea
I looove the Scottie Dog Pattern ~ it reminds me of spending time at my Great Grandmother’s house when I was little because she had a couple of these that I was allowed to play with… Thanks so much for the generous give-away and even more for sparking fond memories!
Great stuff!
another great list! love the scottie dogs
the Scottie dogs are adorable!
Sewn Spaces looks fantastic!
Love the Scotty Dog plushie – so rare to see an angular stuffed animal! Goes perfectly with the fabric
The only pets we have are fish, but those patchwork scottie dogs are really cute! My daughter would probably like one of those to throw on her bed with her other pillows and animals!
Love the collapsible bowl!!
The scottie dogs remind me of a pillow I have that my Great Grandma made for me. I have very few memories of her, but my sisters and I were all given one at birth
that sewing spaces book looks so great
I love all of these. Can’t pick just one to make, might have to make all of them. Can you tell my dog is spoiled rotten?
The scrappy dog bed is so cute!
I know just who I will sew a scotty dog for this year!
the scottie dogs are darling!
Love the personalised pet T-shirt!
Now all I need is a pet!
I think we need some scotties here!
i was just checking out the Joel Dewberry book at the bookstore today! Also, that Scottie Dog finally answers the big Q what to make my stepmom who loves Scottie Dogs! Thanks!
the scottie dogs are hilarious!
Love the bed! My bulldog could use a new one!
Hot chocolate recipe! Yum!!
And I think my dog would *love* a new bed..
What great ideas and I love those bird gift tags!
Don’t know why I never thought to MAKE my dogs a dog collar. Thanks!
I have a daughter and SIL who have 3 dogs (no grandkids) so now I can make christmas gifts for them! LOVE the collar and leash.
Those are some really great ideas. The Scottie Dogs are such a neat idea!
Love the patchwork scottie – can’t wait to make it!

the pet tee is cute, i should make one for my kid. thank you for the links.
Cool dog bed!
The Scottie dog plushie is so cute!
A fabric collapsable pet dish!?!?! That is great!
Do you think if I made my hound a beautiful bed he would get off the sofa?
mmm…that hot chocolate looks delicious! And now I know what to make for my nephew… a scottie plushie! They’ll love it!
The Scottie dog pattern is too cute!
Now, I need to find a little cousin, niece or nephew who is getting a puppy for Christmas! I’m not up to that challenge for my little ones just yet. I really like the looks of the Sewing School book – my girl is so curious about my sewing, and this may have some great ideas for her to try! (If I don’t win it, I may just have to hunt it down!)
I need to bookmark the pet tee idea. My girl would love a horse version. Thanks for the link!
Love the scottie dogs!
That is a great pet bed!

Love the collapsible dog bowl. My daughter is taking an interest in sewing–this looks like a fun project she could make for her friend’s dog. The sewing school book would be perfect for her.
Yay for pet lovers gifts!! so cute!!!
I love the little scottie dogs!
I’ve made my dog a pet bed which he scratched to pieces very quickly! I think I will make that scrappy dog bed for myself, and not my naughty dalmatian….

That hot chocolate looks sinful!

I love my dog and that scrappy dog bed looks just right for him. I better start sorting thru my scraps.
Love the green grocery bag challenge! I usually make my own gift bags, but it is such a better idea to make them into grocery bags that can be re-used frequently!
Cute dog!
I’ve worked in animal rescue for years – I’ve got plenty of people to make ALL of these gifts for!
That Scottie Dog pattern is adorable!
Great ideas!
Thanks for all these great ideas. We are using a few this Christmas.
Would it be weird to sew a doggy bed for my crawling baby? I think he would really love it as a cozy place to hang out!

I know a lucky dog that is going to enjoy a new customized doggie bed for Christmas!
Between the cute little scottie dog and the chocolate ganache, I don’t know where to start! (Oh, and the one skein wonders book looks awesome too.)

I am a HUGE Scottie dog lover.

I’d love to make the dog a custom collar out of pretty fabric, but her fur is so long no one would see it.
