What are you knitting/crocheting for Christmas gifts?

[Dunners]

I really need to get sorted with gifts for ladies & little people in our lives. Preferably small projects due to the number to get through in a few weeks. (Would you give a winter hat for Christmas? )

What are your gift project plans? Rav links appreciated

ETA: kids ages range from 6 months to 12 years (mostly girls, some boys).

shawls! not exactly a quick project though.
Hats, yeah I'd do them for Christmas or handwarmers, socks... can't think what else sorry!

I'm working furiously on a Travelling Woman shawl for my DH's grandmother.

Just found out there will be at least three more kids at Christmas lunch from the extended family, perhaps five, so I thought I might do star tree decorations for them or to put on presents as decorations. I've made this one before:

But am thinking I might try these:

I was also thinking about some felted bowls. Having never made them before I'm not sure how quick they are, though.

Tikki dolls clothes... she's just about to release more dolls patterns too

Dishcloths for kindy teachers
Vest/aviatrix sets for nephews
Perhaps puffy sleeved shrugs for nieces
And then sewing capes for more nephews.

A Benji hat would go down well I think? also the superhero hats I knitted for all the nieces and nephews were very popular indeed! Especially seeing as a whole bunch of kids all had them, it made it more fun http://www.ravelry.com/projects/Whatu/zsa-mask

In terms of what I'm knitting, I have finished an Oriental Lilly and a Tama, and I'm half way through Asa http://www.ravelry.com/patterns/library/asa-2 for family members living in a very cold part of the world (and I've missed the first Christmas posting deadline )

And some scarves for the teachers, and a shawl for an aunt who will be hosting us for a holiday (and perhaps some dishcloths for my uncle? But does that look like we expect him to have lots of cleaning up after us?)

Thanks for the reminder, I forgot I had them on my knitting list for the kids for Christmas, must remember to do them next, thankfully I'm about to cast off a couple of bigger projects ready to do little things before Christmas

Toys. http://mummyzilla.blogspot.com/2011/10/roar.html I've also knitted a pig, and I am supposed to be knitting some food for J.

There are heaps of patterns on Ravelry and they're pretty fast to knit - but can be a bit of a pain to stuff and piece together.

I've just about finished a garden city scarf for my Mum, so that's one down. I'd got plans for a few cardigans and jumpers for small members of the family, and then I found this: http://www.ravelry.com/patterns/library/constance-7 which I now HAVE to knit for Lena, so everything else might have to go out of the window.
If I get five minutes I may make my brother this squashed rat book mark, as I think he'll find it funny:

And I need to do another book mark of some description, preferably crochet as I want something on the go that's not knitting for a swap I'm doing. Any suggestions??

I'm not doing that much this year, but I'm doing a cotton tropical fish skirt (pink/purply gradient) for kaia http://www.ravelry.com/patterns/library ... fish-skirt and for my cousin's daughter a puffy sleeved shrug http://www.ravelry.com/patterns/library ... eved-shrug and probably thats it I'm being a real slack bum this year but I have lots of other projects on the go which have a bit of a deadline.
