I am, for my daughter I am crocheting a purse, a Poke Ball (she is in the middle of a massive pokemon obsession), a character from pokemon, and I may attempt a sock monkey

for 2 of my brothers I am making the same poke balls and 2 different pokemon characters

for my son since he will be soo new at Christmas time I am making hats and I am thinking of trying mittens, booties, and a diaper cover

I am also planing on trying to make some stuff to give to friend's kids (purses for the girls the boys well I have no idea)

anyone have any good crochet ideas/patterns they would like to pass on to help that list?
What is everyone else crafting for the Holidays?

can't crochet to save my life, so can't help you at all

My plan was to make a quilt for each kid for Christmas, but I haven't started yet and its almost November, so likely won't happen. And if I can't make five, why even start one?

I fear pinterest lol I know sooo many people that have lost themselves to it and I am sure I will be one of them lol

I also just bought a sewing machine and am re-learning so I may make a couple thinks that way (a friend just moved, bought a new couch and has been complaining she needs new throw pillows so I may make some for her...I'll just have to enlist her husband's help in buying fabric)
