Rainbow Gradient Yarns Make A Nice Gift

By Sarah Moore


When it comes to dealing with the cool winter months, there is seldom too much cover a person can wear. In other words, scarves, caps, mittens, and sometimes leg warmers will be in demand. These are nice for young people but there are some kids at heart who can appreciate winter gear that is handmade. For those who like to make these as gifts, it may be a lot of fun to try out color gradient yarns instead of solids.

For many people, there is nothing like a good cap and scarf set that looks great during the cooler months. Throw in some mittens in a nice shade of blue or pink gradient and the wearer may find themselves very well protected from the cold. It also cannot hurt to wear something that looks fun and feels great.

For that fashionista, sometimes it is just a matter of coordinating the right colors. Shades of red, purple, or even black can create a nice contrast with denim or neutral outfits. Experienced yarn artists can also find complimentary colors they can blend in with the gradient shades.

Right now, bright colors are the in fashion thing that can be seen in clothing and decorative accessories. However, not everyone wants to pay a hefty price for something but using yarn art to recreate a look is not only smart but functional. Using a yarn that is heavier than most usually pays off when it comes to longevity.

With the right ideas in place, a person can create something that is hard to find in most stores. Table placemats, night socks, or even a cover for storage container are some projects that are unique gifts to present to friends. The great thing is that some items take little time to make and the cost is minimal. This is a lot better than driving around looking for the right item or wondering if the right amount of money was spent.

When it comes to making caps or mittens, these can be finished in a matter of minutes. Scarves for taller people can take time but the effort will certainly pay off. What many like about handmade knits is these are more effective than what is sold in the stores. Scarves found on the rack may be too lightweight or not wide enough for ample coverage.

This is why it helps to go with a yarn that is slightly heavy yet full of color when giving gifts to others. Many who live in cold weather states often appreciate someone who can make something that is fashionable yet serves a purpose. No one wants to look frumpy or feel as if they are underdressed for the weather.

Although fashion and decor trends tend to come and go, the demand for good needle art will never go away. Most wearers love the feel and appreciate the warmth it brings to many wearable items. For some expert needle artists, it is a quick and inexpensive way to create items for the home without breaking out the sewing machine or spending more than necessary.
