I'm having a hard time to come up with things for this list this year. Most of my thinking goes towards things we need for the wedding. But here are a couple of things I'd like. I certainly don't expect to receive everything on this list.
Yarn. Yarn, yarn, yarn. I love the local shops ImagiKnit or Noe Knits. Both have gift certificates. I have a couple of sweaters that I would like to make.
- Central Park Hoodie. Need 3294 yards. Gage is 17 sts and 24 rows = 4". In a dark reddish heathered color.
- Dragon Skin Wrap. Need 2400 yards. They recommend the Kollage Yarns Yummy (80% bamboo, 20% merino wool). I think a light mauvy color would be great.
Massages! I would love gift certificates for massages at Re:Fresh Spa, a local spa in San Francisco that I really like. My back has been really knotted lately. Probably from all the knitting.
The Beatrix Potter/Peter Rabbit Wall Calendar. The only place I've found it the past few years is from Amazon.com in the UK.
A page-a-day calendar for my desk at work. I don't have a specific one in mind. I like ones with quotes by women, or the 'for women who do too much' series.
I've worn out my current pair of Dansko clogs. I wear them everyday and LOVE them. A new pair would be awesome. Size 41, Dansko professional. Brown or Black.
I'm starting to wear out the t-shirts I sleep in.
English Major: You do the math T-shirt. XXL please.
A blocking board to block knitting. The large board that's 33 x 51 has my eye. There's a number of places online that have them. Sandee's Kwit Knit seems to be on the cheaper side with shipping.
My headphones for my iPod are on their last legs. I really need some new ones. I like the little Sony white ones.
There are a couple of magazines I would like to renew or start getting:
- Craft (I haven't gotten this in about a year and I really miss it)
- Real Simple
- Vegetarian Times (this is a renewal)
- Cooking Illustrated (been awhile since we got this)

Before I just went and signed myself up for this, I thought I should probably put it on the Kitmas list. I'd love an individual membership to the Knitters Guild.
