Christmas List
Over the years, and especially since working with The Rocking Yak, I’ve become increasingly intentional with my purchases. Even more so in this last year as my desire to simplify and travel has become more pressing in my life. This holiday season has found our family craving more shared moments and adventures over things. Even so, there are a few items that have found their way onto my Christmas list this year.

As I was looking for some handmade stocking stuffer ideas on Pintrest, I came across these felt hankie holders made by Martha Stewart.
It gave me the idea to create some knitted ones. Here is a pattern I came up with while making some.
Materials:
worsted weight stash yarn in 2 (or more) colors (or any yarn that you prefer for the project)
a pair of straight needles US9 ( or an appropriate size for your preferred yarn)
a yarn needle

Using an i-cord cast on, cast on 20 stitches in the contrasting color (cc).
Switch to the main color (mc) yarn and knit in stockinette stitch for 6.5″ ending with a knit row.
With the cc yarn purl on row.
Bind off using an i-cord bind off.
Turn the knitting wrong side out and fold so that the two i-cords overlap slightly in the center and sew the top & bottom shut with a mattress stitch.
Weave in all the loose ends.
Embellish with a crocheted edging, or embroidered designs. You could also add some ribbon or buttons.
