It’s always a great gift to give something useful for the cold winter season…oh and cute and cozy too!

I have quite a few artists selling their cozy winter wear at the sale…for both adults and kids!

The hit of the sale last year were Karol Tomlinson’s recycled wool mittens. Using wool sweaters she puts together these one-of-a-kind, beautiful and warm mittens! They make a great gift for others (trust me…I gave quite a few pair out) and a fabulous treat for yourself! Stop in and see what Karol’s selection has to offer this year!

A new addition to the sale this year is Lil Noggin Tops (this is a link to her facebook photo album of more hats and things). Amy of Lil Noggin Tops crochets adorable hats for kiddo’s and adults! Another great gift!

My Aunt Betsy has been knitting me things for years and years, along with the rest of her family…especially her grandchildren. I still have the sweaters she knit for me when I was little stored away for when they’ll fit my daughters! Above is a picture of a couple of the hats she knit for Cedi and Capri last Christmas…so adorable and fun! You’ll find some hats and scarves knit by her at the hoedown this year too!

So between felted mittens, and crocheted and knitted goods we should have your warm and cozy gifts covered!

The Handcrafted Hoedown for the Holidays 2009 will take place on November 20th and 21st from 9 until 5 at Lapacek’s Orchard.
