Looking for Gifts for a Hunter?

As we head towards the Holidays, we're going to try to come up with some great, quick ideas for you for gifts. Here's our first one.

Julie had a brilliant idea in the store for a knitted item for the hunters in your life. A bright orange PolarKnit hat. Picture this hat in orange and you get the idea:

This pattern is a free download pattern from http://www.polarknit.com/. It calls for 3 skeins of PolarKnit ($8.50 per skein).

And, while you're at it, how about a pair of "pop-up paws"?

These are basically fingerless gloves with a section that pulls over the top of the fingers to form a mitten. These are great for hunters (and others) who need their fingers free occasionally, but want their fingers warm for the rest of the time. This is a Nancy Lindberg Pattern called "Fits Like ... a Glove" and uses a DK weight yarn. The pattern is available in the store for $4.50.
