organizing caddy giveaway for knitters or anyone!
December 05, 2022
Edited: this giveaway is closed. Congratulations to the winners, Mary and Terri.
I am so excited to offer TWO giveaways from the kind folks at Mollie Ollie, and I'm pretty sure you are going to be excited too! Mollie Ollie makes beautiful hard wearing felt caddies and organizers. I own two of the Mimmo Felt Caddy organizers, one for my knitting room and one for my car. My car caddy carries the essentials in one place: tissues, sunscreen, pen and paper, umbrella, hand sanitizer, masks, coloring books and toys, extra readers and sunglasses, and my shopping bags. It sits on my front seat for easy access, but when I have a rider, it's easy to move to the back seat. However, the caddy I love the most is the one I keep in my knitting room. It holds all my knitting needles and notions in one place at right at my fingertips. No more going through drawers to find the extra counter or the tape measurer. When I have a visitor staying in my knitting room/guest room, and since it's a grab and go type of thing, it's handy to whisk it away to another room, and I don't leave a thing behind! I have become so accustomed to my knitting caddy, and because it's so compact and sturdy, I bring it with us on road trips. It also folds flat so I was able to take it on a cruise and set it up on the desk in our tiny stateroom to corral all the travel flotsam and knitting things I needed. It was actually kind of genius I thought and definitely doing that again.
These make great gifts and I've given a few away myself. Both my daughter and granddaughter use their's as a car caddy, and my daughter-in-law used it as a diaper caddy, but as he has outgrown that, it is now used as the craft/coloring book caddy. The caddy comes in two colors, teal/rose and gray/turquoise, is 14.5 by 9.5 by 7" and includes 8 pockets and 2 removable dividers. The 7 piece modular felt tray set shown above comes in either teal/gray or light gray. Because it's so soft, it can be used to safely store jewelry, and because it's washable you can use it as a makeup organizer. The set includes 1 large (11.2x7.8x2 inch), 2 medium-sized (7.5x5.5x2 inch), 4 small-sized (5.2x3.6x2 Inch). You can customize a layout to fit any size drawer and for your specific need, e.g. cosmetics, stationery, bathroom, office, kitchen, dresser and organize without wasted space. You can find out more information on the Mollie Ollie website.
I'll choose two winners at random. It's easy to enter, just make a comment on this post!

I would love one of these caddies to store my knitting. I started knitting during the pandemic and your blog and other knitters’ blogs have been so useful. My ravelry name is siberiancrane.
ReplyDeleteNot sure what the four choices are since I’m basing my first choice on color. I love the gray/turquoise combination followed by the teal/rose. I could think of many uses for these caddies. Sue E. from central Pennsylvania.
ReplyDeleteWow, the gray/ turquoise caddy really appeals to me! I’ve never posted a comment here before, but I’ve been following you for a year or two and really enjoying your blog. I’m fyfndrum on Ravelry. (Mary)
ReplyDeleteKristen, this is a wonderful giveaway! My first and second choice is the either color of the caddies. Great for my knitting and for all the traveling I do to visit the grandchild two states away! I am marthalou on Ravelry. Merry Christmas, Martha N.
ReplyDeleteOh my! I can think of so many ways to use such a handy item! Beside knitting or in the car, I would use it for either my spinning or weaving projects. Thank you for your generosity! Geri
ReplyDeleteOh dear either color is lovely! Geri
ReplyDeleteDear Kristen, What a great prize! I already bought the turquoise and gray caddy in the last year or so in response to your review. Feels so luxurious and I really love it. Don’t make use enough of those side pockets, though, judging from how you arrange yours! Since our retirement home is so tiny and both our hobbies are so space-eating, one is plenty for me and I will just watch from the sidelines to see who are the lucky winners! On behalf of all the “contestants”, Thank You! Chloe
ReplyDeleteWhat a great organizer! I would use it to store knitting/crocheting projects. My current bag needs to be shuffled through to find what I need. Barbara Mc
ReplyDeleteThank you for introducing us to these organizers. In particular I love that the contents in the organizers are all visible at the same time, something about being able to have a visual scan of everything, in an organized way, is very pleasing without being an overwhelming jumble. Portability is a relief!
ReplyDeleteThe gray is lovely! What a pretty and useful way to organize. Thank you
ReplyDeleteI would love the caddy in teal/Rose Thank you.

I absolutely love the grey caddy. This would be perfect for my knitting stuff!!!! I'm always jumping up looking for something!!!! Thank you for this giveaway! Rav name - knittygirl4 or email - leahdl@gmail.com
ReplyDeleteI know I’m supposed to tell you which caddy I’d choose if it were up to me (and if I don’t win, I expect I’ll go get myself one because they seem so very useful) so I’ll say gray. But that aqua one is gorgeous too.

Your knitting has inspired me for lots of years now. When you began knitting for your adorable grandson, I was hooked. Now that my grandson will be 3 and not growing quite so quickly, I love seeing what you have knit for yours. The patterns you choose and how you customize them is so helpful. I adore both of the caddies and am constantly looking for a way to neatly corral my knitting instead of just in a basket on the floor. Rav nam is: tmanley or email is manley.terri@gmail.com
ReplyDeleteThanks again for being so willing to share your creativity!
Great organizer. I love the grey one. critssa40@me.com

Wow, this is a great give-away! My knitting supplies are scattered all over the end table in my living room & I'm embarrassed whenever someone comes over or scrambling to find just what tool I need at night when I sit down to knit. My first choice is the grey and turquoise caddy; the second in the other colored caddy. Thanks so much and I'm AliciaCH on Ravelry and my email address is johnhathcock_28107@yahoo.com. Happy Holidays!!
ReplyDeleteThe caddy looks awesome! I would love it in the gray/turquoise color way. I also just ordered all the supplies for your wooden peg santas. Can't wait to make them! My name on Ravelry is "Juji"
ReplyDeleteThese caddies look amazing! I would love either the grey/blue caddy or the turquoise pink caddy. I love reading your blogs and have gotten many knitting ideas from your finished items. Thanks for including me in the give-away drawing!

Thanks for having this wonderful give away! I really like the grey/turquoise caddy.
ReplyDeleteYour blog is delightful, as is your handsome grandson.
Kathy K. Would love the teal /gray cady for my knitting bits and pieces which currently cover the table top beside the couch where I sit and knit each night. Was looking for a new type of organizer….. Thanks for the idea …. If I don’t win I know where to shop! Love your postings.
ReplyDeleteI love the grey tote!

What a lovely gift to offer all of us! I would prefer the grey caddy, and so would the knitting I have strewn around the house (so I can never find what I need)! My 3d grade granddaughter, who loves organizers, and fills them with her reading and art supplies, is all about the teal. c.b.crooke@gmail.com or Nordicheart on Ravelry!
ReplyDeleteLove the caddy especially for organizing my knitting supplies which are always where I don’t need them…any color would get the job done! Love your blog for the knitting but I also try the recipes and craft ideas. (I failed at the October pantry clean out, but it did make me think more about purchases and usage). I’m 5joyboys on Ravelry.
ReplyDeleteYou are always such an inspiration. I am currently working on the Stephen West blanket from one of your blog posts. I would love a caddy to help hold projects. Thank you for a chance to win. sallyclarkgray@hotmail.com

ReplyDeleteWhat a great way to be organized with my knitting! I like the grey and turquoise color. Kristin, I follow your blog and admire your energy and motivation…always something on those needles. You are a lovely knitter! On Ravelry, I think I am Snaysner….that is my email, too. Snaysner@gmail.com. Thanks for the generous offer!
ReplyDeleteAhh, organization is not one of my strong suits and something that I will be striving to change in 2023. I always start out with the best intentions, but never seem to accomplish. Love your blog and all of the things that you share with us. This tote looks amazing and would be perfect for my knitting “stuff.” I am mikkilayla on Ravelry.
ReplyDeleteThe Mollie Ollie shop has tasteful products. I esp. like the car caddy idea in gray/turquoise colors. I would utilize the knitting caddy too in the same colors. My ravelry name is knit262
ReplyDeleteA wonderful give-away! The caddy in either color would be my first choice, but either would be great. I enjoy your blog and all your amazing knitting projects; very inspiring.
