Amigurumi Christmas Tree Crochet Patterns Monica Taylor

The art of gift-giving is being lost with commercialism, while crocheters have the ability to make gifts that have meaning and thought. What comes to my mind the most are the people who have everything they want but something handmade is more thoughtful and unique.

For myself, I appreciate handmade a lot. I understand the work that went behind the item. I love it, even more, when it has something unique that is something that I can see fitting into my life. My friend, Tanya, made me a Nova Scotian Inspired Quilt for my guest room at my house. I love it. I know she put a lot of thought into it and my guest room about travels with Nova Scotia being the epicentre. If you see the Christmas Fir Tree, that's my guest room. You can see I collect things on my travel for that room.

Crocheters can be significantly crushed in pressure at Christmas time with ideas that were bigger than the time allotment they had to do it. So my goals below are projects where there is not a lot of time commitment.
