These gift/goody bags work up quickly in worsted weight yarn, and because they only use a few yards of each color, they are great stash busters. Most are easy to personalize by using different colors and adding embellishments. Choose from Elf, Candy Cane, Reindeer, Snowman, Poinsettia, Ornament, Bell, Nutcracker, Christmas Tree, Santa's Hat, Snow Globe, Polar Bear, Penguin, Pinata, or Gingerbread House - 15 different bags. * Fill a candy cane bag with peppermints for a great teacher's gift.
* Use scented soap or a Christmas-scented candle in the poinsettia bag for a unique hostess gift.
* Make an elf with the same hair color as your giftee, and you turn an impersonal gift card into a personalized gift.
* Omit the drawstring, fill with tissue paper or Fiberfill, sew opening closed and you have a one-of-a-kind decoration for your Christmas tree.
* Your little girl would love to carry one of these bags as a Christmas season purse. Skill level: Easy to intermediate
