Panic! at the Knittery

in order to solve my Chinese New Year gift giving panic, I have laid it out on a chart and have listed all the possible people I might want to knit/crochet gifts for. To break things down simpler, I've removed my immediately family members (dad, mom, sunny, helen, abraham, issac and aaron) and have put their gifts into the Xmas09 since I've already given them knits for Christmas this year, no need to do knitted gifts for Chinese New Year as well.

After separating my immediately family and the relatives, I categorised the relatives even further. Male and Female. Most of the female relatives, whether an aunt or cousin is getting the i just look pretty scarf, from here on now will be shortened to "Pretty Scarf". It's a fast crochet, I can get one done per day, maybe 2 if I don't nap at lunch, plus it looks good.

the men, i've slated them for the one row handspun pattern from YH... but I'm thinking for the men, whether they be cousins or uncles I might not knit or crochet for them... I just don't think they'd like it very much.

I have a few relatives on the list that I'm slating the turn a square hat for them... of course there's always Melody's sock that I promised her... her sock will take about 4 days knitting with my allotted knitting time per day (something to keep in mind really)...

In conclusion::
Pretty Scarf : still need 1 (FO:5, WIP:1)
Turn a Square: still need 3
Owl Hat: Still need 1 (WIP:1)
DishCloth: still need zero (FO:1)
Sock: still need 1
One Row: still need 6
Aspen Scarf: still need zero (FO:1)

Is this all possible by Jan 25 maybe 26 at the latest? Stayed tuned to find out!!
