Hi,
my grandpa’s birthday is coming up soon and I still need to find a gift for him. Do you have any ideas? I’m totally out of ideas. (It absolutely has to be something crocheted or knotted.) Best regards, nadiwagn

What does he like? What are his hobbies? What does he like to eat or drink? :)

I think most older people prefer personal gifts... And spending time together is the best of all.
For more tips, it would be really great to learn more about your grandpa.

Hi,
I’ve already crocheted two grandpas, and they were a huge hit.
Best regards, Marlies

Hey, your grandpas look great. Personally, I like the one on top best.

nadiwagn Maybe you could crochet a small pillow with a nice design for your grandpa, or a little granny square blanket that he can drape over his legs.

Hi, what do you think of this little beer carrier... it’s crocheted from felting wool… And then felted in the washing machine—of course, you can also make it in a solid color:

Please post ads only in the ad threads I’ve created—thanks.

@Petra Perle, I removed your link, but it’s no problem. :-)
If you’d like to recreate Petra Perle’s bag, you can find the pattern in her shop.

@Bastelfan It just occurred to me that I could sew him a pillow. Then I could crochet a nice design and sew it onto it. Thanks for giving me that idea!
