Got myself into a bit of a pickle, same as basically every year, where I probably need to make something for my grandma but am out of ideas.

So I thought a thread about what sort of gifts we're all making might be fun but also might kick my brain into gear ideas-wise ๐Ÿ˜„

My mam has requested I sew her a draught excluder for her living room door, which is a sewing project so simple even I presumably can't muck it up. But so far I've got no real knitting plans beyond a vague "make some tiny last-minute baby stuff for new parent friends".

Dazzle me with your festive knitting plans!

I generally don't knit Christmas gifts ๐Ÿซฃ. I don't start early enough and I don't have the bandwidth. End of year is stressful enough at work herding grown ass adults to complete their annual competency assessments before 12/31 because everyone puts it off instead of working on them throughout year.

I typically give out apple butter or jam and handmade soap.

I aspire to your way of life except the bit with the stressful work ๐Ÿ˜‰
