OK, folks, it's crunch time.
It is now November 9, which puts us about 6 weeks out from Christmas.
I don't even want to tell you how close we are to Hanukkah.
But it's less than a month.
If you haven't started your holiday knitting, it is GO time.
It's past GO time, actually.
Which means I'm waaaaaaay behind, as usual.
So instead of getting started, I'm going to share a few quick(ish) holiday project ideas with you.

Hats are a great quick knit gift, and this Brambles Beret has 3 slouch options, so you can get the look you want. Also, FREE!
And speaking of hats, my Hugs and Smooches hat comes in 5 sizes, for all your gift giving needs!

If socks are your thing, try these Business Casual socks from Tanis Lavallee--they're unisex, and the FREE pattern is easy to memorize for on-the-go knitting.

Elizabeth's Zimmerman's Mitered Mittens knit up quickly in aran weight, and are great for variegated or self-striping yarns. You can find the pattern in Knitter's Almanac, which costs all of $7 on Amazon.
If you need a baby gift, you can't go wrong with the speedy Baby Sophisticate, simple yet adorable.
So what are you knitting for the holidays? Have you started yet?
