I may be biting off more than I can chew here, but I'm feeling inspired to see if I can manage some handmade gifts again this year. I'm already making a book for my dad, but the kids could all use new hats. 4yo would like a cat-hat: I checked ravelry but I didn't see any cat-eared hats I loved but since I'm going for the style where it's no decreases, seamed straight across at the top, corners pinched into "ears," I think I can wing it. Short rows on the sides to result in pointier ears, maybe? This should be easily doable by Christmas.

6yo didn't request a specific hat but 6yo loves dragons and I found this pattern on ravelry ...which is no longer available but eh, I can make out the chart from project photos and I don't really like the style of the top shaping anyway. But sock yarn...maaaaybe I can finish? I ordered yarn today so I'm at least going to give it a try.

2yo would like a purple hat. I can figure out a purple hat.

On a shelf in the sunroom I still have a set of partially completed juggling balls I'm making for my husband and who knows, maybe I can finish those too.
