January List!

It's officially January, so here's my list for this month:

  • Monkey socks / Mom / Mom's birthday / March
  • Baby set (booties, hat, sweater) / Baby / April
  • Yoga bag / MIL / MIL's birthday / March
  • 2 socks for 2008 holiday advent calendar / December
I want to use this idea of spacing out gift knitting throughout the year to enable me to do some holiday decoration knitting as well! I really want to do one of those sock advent calendars so I figure 2 a month will get me there :)

ETA: Sock Advent Calendar information! I got the idea from Anny Purls who got the idea from Martha Stewart via Whip Up!



Isn't it adorable? I think I'm going to do something different for the numbers, but I love the idea! I was thinking about having the socks hang from a banner or similar that would have the numbers on them. Also, no second sock syndrome if you don't care about making pairs :)

Thanks so much for this most inspirational KAL!
