After many years of refusing to do Christmas knitting, this year, I'm feeling inspired.
Don't ask me why, and I realize that it probably means I'm insane. I do have two round trips to the DC area coming up this month - since we're driving, that's more than 30 hours of knitting time in 4 days, so provided I can stay awake, I'm going to have lots more knitting time than usual.
Here's the current plan, and list.
Me-mere - Mountain Stream Scarf that I've already posted about. It's a little less than 20% done now.
Brother 1 - CounterPoint scarf He's a music teacher, so I think this'll be perfect. Totally unstarted, but I have the yarn.
Brother 2 - Totally stumped, but we may be joint gifting him with a laptop so he can keep in touch while out on the road (he's a newly-minted truck driver), so it may not matter. If not, anyone have any suggestions for a 25 year old Metallica-loving truck driver?
Dad - grey and black boot socks, my own design. Totally unstarted, but I have the yarn.
Mom and Sister - Chapeau Marnier, one in chocolate brown, the other in raspberry. They're getting the same, because they look a lot alike, and I think it'll be really flattering on both of them. Yarn is inbound, since I've decided I don't like the yarn I settled for at Webs last weekend.
Sister-in-Law - if I still have time, Odessa in a lovely charcoal silk alpaca I have marinating in my stash.
Mother-in-Law - I found a nifty knitted chile pepper ristra that I think she would just love. Not started, I have the yarn.
That's a totally achievable list, right?
Hey. Stop laughing!

Something like the We Call Them Pirates cap for the Metallica-loving truck driver, perhaps? Can't really go wrong with skulls. Or flames. Or skulls AND flames.
