 What do you Buy the Mother-in-law who wants ‘nothing’. Yeah I know your pain. 

Well my mother-in-law is actually quite easy but I love to find her little things that are special that are not off the shelf.
We live on a farm and are very lucky to have great neighbors, some make their own products and we are spoiled by one in particular neighbor whose specialty is JAM! Homemade Jam….nothing beats this.
Thickly spread on your toast. or as we like to do is make waffles. 
SO when my mother-in-law visited last time we had been given some, and she loved it. Telling everybody back home about this wonderful Jam! Fortunately for us. 
Our neighbor has turned her Jam into a Homemade Business, SO I put an order in, and wanted to add a bit of crochet decoration to the little Pots.   
SO looking around for Christmas Crochet ideas I didn’t really find anything for the little post. So this is what I came up with.

You can use any colors for these it’s just I used Christmassy Colours.
