I need gift ideas!

I made the mistake of knitting my DH a pair of socks from some very expensive wool yarn that was given to me and now that's all he wants me to make him. He said they were the warmest and most comfortable sock he has found to wear with his winter boots. I have to order the yarn online and pay a high shipping cost and it takes me a long time to knit a pair of socks but he's worth it. My nephews loved the double tied fleece quilts I made for each of them. They take them to ballgames, campouts, swimming. I made DH a log carrier for bringing in firewood. He uses it and says it makes the job easier and he can carry more wood in one trip.

The men in my life love PJ pants, so that is probably what I would do. I'm making some luggage tags this year for the first time, so I don't know yet how they will go over!

I totally understand about the knitted socks. I have knit socks over the years and the recepients always love them. MY DIL loves to wear hers when she goes snow shoeing in the woods. Keeps her feet nice and warm.
