Wine charms are a must at parties where your guests will be mingling throughout the night, since you don’t want to have anyone lose track of their glass. These cute NYC subway graphic wine charms are made using Mod Podge
Podgeable Shapes. Visit Mod Podge Rocks for instructions and a free printable of both the subway graphics and a blank template you can customize with your own artwork.
I honestly fell in love with this Journey Hat the moment I saw those wild horses galloping across it—it just spoke to something in me. As someone who knits a lot (and I mean a lot), this pattern was a refreshing change of pace. It’s beautifully designed and incredibly clear to follow. You can tell it’s been thoughtfully written.
I used a mix of natural wool tones with a soft charcoal for the horse silhouette, and the final result? Magical. The colorwork is rhythmic and satisfying once you find your groove. I wouldn’t call it beginner-easy, but if you’ve done some stranded knitting before, you’ll be absolutely fine—and the payoff is so worth it.
It knit up quicker than I expected, and the finished hat has a lovely, sturdy-yet-soft feel. It made a gorgeous gift for my horse-loving teen (though I’m secretly making another for myself!).
If you’re after a meaningful, eye-catching knit that’s a little different from your usual fair isle, this is the one. Highly recommend for any horse lover out there. Makes a great gift too and dare I say Christmas is not that far away.
