Subway Knitter ...not afraid to knit in public
Just in time for Christmas, I discovered this clever packaging via a colleague. This particular parcel was filled with lemon-anise biscotti (yum!), it would also be perfect for a pair of handknit socks.
It's available at Papersource. Of course, I had to browse the giftwrap section of the website and discovered more cool things. This might revolutionize how future knitted gifts are packaged.

The take out box version is a little fiddly but the pillow box aka puffy box is pretty straightforward.
Michaels and AC Moore usually sell the take out boxes as well!
I was going to mention the Michael's take-out boxes as well. They have slightly less cute colors/patterns, but they cost $1 as opposed to $6.50!
What a great idea! Thanks for sharing.
Oh fabulous!
That's really cute. :)
Papersource is dangerous - so many beautiful things, such a small budget ;)
The Container Store also has a crap load of cute packaging options. They're a bit less expensive than Papersource but not as cheap as the big box craft stores. There are a few online sources for this kind of thing that are ALOT cheaper than both those options. If you're interested I can dig up my links.
paper source is awesome. just for inspiration alone.
