Adding Your Own Touch
Wrap your pressie in recycled paper with burlap ribbon, or tuck in a personal note sharing the item’s yarn. It’s the little touches that turn a purchase into a memory.

The Magic of It
Giving vintage and quirky gifts isn’t just about the item — it’s about connection. Each item has a past, which now is part of the receiver’s story.
