The best holiday gifts under $50 for knitters in 2024

The best holiday gifts under $50 for knitters in 2024

I don't know about you, but I'm already starting to think about holiday gift knitting and gift guides for 2024! So, let's get started with the first post in my holiday series with some thoughtful holiday gift ideas for your favorite knitter. You will find some stunning gifts for knitters here for the season. 

Whether you are purchasing a Christmas gift or one for another winter holiday for your favorite fiber artists, we've got all the goods for you here.

Plus, these gifts won't be breaking the bank because everything is under $50! 

This post contains affiliate links (clearly marked) as well as links to our web shop! Thank you for shopping small businesses like mine for your holiday needs.

The perfect gift under $10

This category contains some of the best gifts, in my personal opinion. These are great for the beginner knitter and the experienced knitter alike, and many of them are small and tuck well into a little stocking. It's really the little things that count, and they are luxurious and budget-friendly. 



A solid wool soap is a sustainable and plastic-free version of regular wool wash, and it is a must have on your gift list. It's small and transportable, and can be cut into smaller sizes for travel. One bar lasts a very long time when I use it, and because it's rather uncommon, it's a great way to add a practical gift to your list.

Stitch markers are adorable and practical gifts, can come in a huge range of different designs, and are an essential tool for every knitting project. It's a great idea to purchase a set, but the smallest ones can be quite affordable.

Though they come in plain versions also, it's always lovely to be treated to a beautiful, custom-designed enamel stitch marker, such as one of our many designs!

If you know a shawl knitter, who loves to work up all kinds of stunning lace projects in wrap or shawl form, a shawl pin is a must​. They are affordable and really add that extra special touch.

KnitPicks - Wooden Shawl Sticks (affiliate link) in a variety of designs will suit your needs perfectly. 

Great gift ideas under $30

A tape measure is the perfect size to use as a stocking stuffer or tucked into a little gift basket. A knitter can never have too many retractable tape measures, and I often find that I want one for every knitting bag I own!

This fabulously useful gift comes a range of stunning Rifle Paper Co prints.

Kitty Kitty Knit Kit (Notions Kit, With Tin) - Aimee Sher Makes

A notion tin is a fantastic choice for knitters who have a little bit of everything in their project, just loosely jangling around in their bag! It doesn't matter if you have all the right tools if you can't find them in your project bags. Your favorite knitting friends will appreciate an extra notion tin or two to corral all their goodies with, which will make a big difference in their life!

Milk Oolong (Winter 2023) - Aimee Sher Makes

Finally, the last gift under $30 may come as a surprise to you! We love a great loose leaf tea for knitters because what knitter doesn't love a cozy hot beverage when the weather is cold outside? 

We carry a range of unique, single-origin oolong teas from Taiwan of the highest quality with lots of fragrance and purity. Bonus: you can enjoy this with your knitter friend and share an experience!

​High quality gifts under $50

A special project kit that comes with the pattern is the perfect knitting gift! Our kits come with luxurious new yarn and thoughtful pattern. Plus, the pattern comes in a variety of different sizes so that your knitter can make just what they want.

Try our kit for the Arrow to the Moon Socks for your favorite knitter, or try Clara's Playtime Mittens for a super practical knit.

Gift certificates for last-minute gifting

If it's already late in your holiday gifting season and you still don't have your present yet for your favorite knitter, gift cards can be the perfect last-minute gift. Your knitter will be able to choose their own favorite colors for those special skeins of yarn. If it's already too late for shipping, try our gift card which comes in a wide range of dollar amounts.

 

We hope that these ideas help you with your shopping for this year. If you have any other knitting gift suggestions for budget-conscious shoppers, do let us know in the comments!
