Meghan's Holiday Gift Guide Picks

The time crunch is real. It's that time of year where the days are literally and figuratively so short that my gift-knitting time seems to evaporate. Nevertheless, I've pulled together my most-coveted quick knits, gift list for the people I love the most. The only problem is I kind of want them for myself, too! 

For Mom: Sangaku by Melanie Berg

My mom is a notorious "asker-of" hand knitwear. As soon as she rips open the box holding a new sweater or accessory she's thrilled and then promptly asks for another. I've been contemplating what to make for Annie this year, as I already made her a Tangled Up in Gray in Forge. Finally, I settled on the gorgeous Sangaku by Melanie Berg. This shawl's been on my knitlist for quite some time, and Weld in Red Feather and Fawn is perfect for my warm tone-loving mom.

For Dad: Fulton by Emily Greene

My dad requested a "hat in lake" the moment he saw the color return from the dye house. For a man who asks for almost nothing and has given me so much, I thought the first hat made in Forge was the perfect gift for him this Christmas.

The problem is I couldn't wait to give it to him! And he loves it! It's a constant companion in his coat pocket or on his noggin'. Complete with a H+W Foldover Custom Leather Tag, he's been wearing his Fulton proudly since I gave it to him. 

For my sister: Marin Headlands by Sloane Rosenthal

Cable-y goodness complete with a floofy pom pom. Marin Headlands is the perfect hat for my sister's busy, battle-the-elements, New Yorker life. The brim is nice and deep to pull over her ears and the pom pom adds comical whimsy, which is appropriate for my sister's cartoon character personality. Of course, as she is a New Yorker so there are, um, limited, but sophisticated, color options in Forge

Raven + Charcoal

Hopefully I can pull off my knitlist before the clock chimes midnight on Christmas Eve. Even if I don't there is always our Ready-to-Wear Beanies in Charcoal, Ash, and Fawn for either a backup or front runner. 

My cousin Dan and his awesome wife, Laurén, wore their new H+W beanies in their Christmas card photo. Brinkley had to get in on the action, too. Dogs are the best photo bombers, right?

Good boy, Brinkles! 😂

Happy Holidays, everyone!

    After losing access to my cryptocurrency due to a phishing incident, I was stressed and unsure of what to do next. I had no idea how the transaction happened or whether there was any realistic chance of getting anything back. It felt like a very confusing and emotional situation. In this fictional scenario, I came across Wizard James Recovery (His personal Whatsapp number +447418367204) and reached out for guidance. The process focused mainly on reviewing what happened, explaining how crypto scams typically work, and helping me understand the transaction trail. While nothing was promised, I appreciated having someone break things down in a clear and structured way. The most helpful part of the experience was the education I received. I learned how important it is to protect seed phrases, verify every transaction carefully, and avoid connecting wallets to unknown sites. It made me realize how easily mistakes or scams can happen in the crypto space.

    I still can’t believe this is real, but I actually won the lottery jackpot! It feels like a dream come true. For years, I would occasionally play without expecting much, just hoping that one day luck would finally be on my side—and it finally happened when I came across a testimony on how Dr Benjamin the great spell caster had helped alot of people win, so I reached out to him, he told me what to do and I followed his instructions, after 48 hours he gave some numbers to play, I did played the numbers as instructed.

    The moment I checked my numbers and realized they all matched, my heart started racing. I had to double-check multiple times because I couldn’t believe what I was seeing. Winning the Powerball jackpot of $107,000,000,00. This has completely changed my life. It’s given me financial freedom, peace of mind, and the opportunity to support my family and invest in my future. Here are his contact information.

    I was cured from five years of Genital Herpes Virus and Itching Blisters on my genital part within 3 weeks of drinking Doctor Excel Herbal Medicine. I was recommended to Doctor excel and his website was shared by his previous clients who have been cured from herpes, so I decided to try his herbal product which I placed an order for and within two weeks I received the product on my address through DHL with instructions on how to use the medicine. I was advised to go for another Genital Herpes PCR test which I did and to my surprise my result was negative with no trace of the virus on my system. I highly recommend him to anyone suffering from the same virus. Excelherbalcure.com

    I gave it all i had to make it work in my marriage but he still left me and our kids. His family fought for me and still nothing changed and he left broken and sad. I manage to keep going on with the hope everything will get better for us one day and he will be back to you. He is a great father to the kids and i had great belief i will see him return back to us. I was lucky enough to got in contact with Dr Isikolo who indeed knew how to fix the problem and he did and to my surprise, my husband came back home to me. I am still amazed how it was possible but indeed this true. The result of his work is assured to manifest after 48 hours. My husband returned and i know better Dr Isikolo is truly a honest man anyone can trust. He is good in his job of fixing problems between partner and have them get back together again. You can read about his works on his page: https://isikolo-temple.com or might as well text him via WhatsApp on: +2348133261196.
