Many people think knitting no longer has a place in these modern times in which everything is made by machines. On the contrary, knitting has become even more interesting because it’s unique and classic.
The origins of knitting date back to 11th century in Egypt and 12th century in Europe. It was the most common method used by nomadic people to make clothes for themselves. Nowadays, making clothes has become a cult for major fashionistas. You can get a custom dress by Azazie if you want to get a stylish wedding or a major couture by Christian Dior if you just want to look extremely glamorous for an event
But I digress; knitting is a hobby. At the same, it is used for DIY purposes such as art decors, fashion design, and gifts for Christmas. Meanwhile, you can pair your gifts with Christmas candies from Sweet Services candy shop to make the atmosphere more like Christmas
To help you figure it out, here are some DIY knitted baby ideas you can try for Christmas:
