If you're wondering what to get a crafter for the holidays, you usually have two options. If you really know about their craft or feel super adventurous, you can get them supplies or equipment. If you don't really know about it, there is a pretty big chance you may get them something they can never use or isn't their taste, and they'll politely smile and put your gift in the back of their stash, never to see the light of day. If you want to get them something fun and useful that they'll actually like, you're pretty safe with a craft book. I've gathered 16 books full of knitting projects, paper crafts, home projects and more, so you're sure to find a good addition to your crafter's library.
