What are you knitting/crocheting right now?

I thought seed stitch was intricate enough to entertain me without being "too much" for a guy. But oh my gosh was it a pain when I had to take stitches out.

Here's a side shot


And a view of the top that sort of shows the spiral as the pattern decreases


I know I have some of that yarn leftover, too, that would make a great headband or something for me (how matchy-matchy).

I did 7 scarves and am finishing up my 8th. The 8th one is a ruffle one the rest were made with yarn my friend sheered, spun and dyed with natural dye's from veggie's and such on her farm. These are my gifts to very special people this year including myself!

So my sister just gave me a hank of beautiful violet pima cotton. Need to find something to do with that, too. Scarf? Hat? Something hippie-ish, to match the theme of my Christmas presents. Time to play

I have so many projects going!

1. socks for my husband
2. socks for myself
3. a cowl for my sister that I started 3 times and just may give up on
4. a sweater jacket for my husband
5. mittens for myself
6. more socks for myself!
7. balled yarn that will be started as a baby sweater in the next couple weeks as a gift for friends who are having a baby!

I am a serial project-starter!

Esmorin, me too. I only have two things I'm knitting at the moment, but a long list of things I want/need to knit. The good thing is that I can't start too many socks at the moment, since I snapped one of my bamboo sock needles and am thus down to one set of US 1 double-pointed needles (which are my go-to size for socks).
Currently working on:
1) Some lacy red socks for me (one nearly down, one to go)
2) Stripey rib scarf in an absolutely lovely merino/alpaca/silk blend. Too bad you can't get the yarn anymore.

Will be working on soon:
1) Lace scarf for my mom. I need to pick a pattern for this. I bought the yarn and will hopefully be sitting down with her after Christmas to pick one.
2) Some basic socks for my dad.
3) Socks for the boyfriend's clown feet
4) Fingerless gloves, also for the boyfriend...technically these should have been a birthday gift for 2011. His birthday's in January.
5) Some knitted gloves for me--I'm planning on using them as glove liners. I'm probably going to make them out of my scraps of sock yarn rather than digging into a new ball.

I'm working on my never-ending Babette crochet blanket, which I think has 6-8weeks of work left to do. Maybe 8-10. I've also just bought yarn for this snuggly Million Stripe wrap, to start after Christmas. I love all the beautiful hats in this thread.
