Your pocketbook is already feeling that holiday burn, but you badly need a scarf and hat to help you brave the rest of winter. Breathe easy: there are a ton of simple, cost-effective solutions to a dilemma like this.

You can make your very own winter accessories with scrap fabric and single skeins of yarn you’ve got laying around the house. Before you know it, you’ll have so many winter accessories you’ll be sending them off to friends and family as Christmas gifts.

Stashbusting Boot Cuffs and Ear Warmers

You’re bundled up in a coat, scarf, and mittens, yet somehow, the winter winds still manage to chill your bones. Keep Jack Frost away from your ears and feet by fortifying your winter attire with boot cuffs and knit headbands.

  • Mulled Wine Boot Cuffs>
  • Gypsy Queen Headband
  • Seed Stitched and Cabled Boot Cuffs
  • Goldenrod Cinched Headband

Cozy Knitwear for Babies

Everyone loves a cuddly baby, and that is doubly true when said cuddly baby is wrapped up in knitwear. Keep the teenie weenie ones in your life warm this winter by whipping up a few of the quick and easy projects for babies.

  • Bitty Baby Uggs
  • Malabrigo Blue Baby Beanies
  • Little Baby Mittens
  • No-Button Baby Booties

Easy Scarf and Beanie Patterns

The votes aren’t in yet, but we’re prrreeetttyyy sure scarves are the best thing about winter. Wrapping one around your neck and snuggling up next to someone—or the mug of spiked cocoa—that you love? There’s nothing better. Stock up on a slew of cute scarves by making your own. While you’re at it, whip up a matching hat. Your friends will be begging for the patterns.

  • Half-Skein Cap
  • Stashbuster Tweed Hat
  • Attic Treasures Scarf
  • Shifting Colors Dishcloth Scarf
