The only things I've been able to make for my guys are hats and afghans. It's so cool that you are being asked to make things for their cool factor. Doesn't it feel great?

oh it sure does what is even cooler is that i now have the confidence in myself to say without a doubt i can make that a year ago i would have never said anything like that all the support here has been a big factor in my confidence

how old is your grandson? There's a cute picture in showandtell of a "racetrack" bag...its basically a round/flat, with a racetrack color the last few rounds, and then uses a drawstring to close.no pattern for that one.

also there's the crazie cars that are really cute! (free patterns here on the ville)

Check out the Mandana, here on the ville in original pattern links. Also those cute cars someone already mentioned, soooo adorable. Lots of car accessories, like cell phone cozies, driving gloves, lapghans for back seat passengers (or for emergencies like when car breaks down in winter).

Tons of toys and games, fishing, dominoes, tic-tac-toe, balls that won't break stuff when thrown around by winter house bound kids.

Big animal shaped rugs and pillows for TV watching.

Back packs, afghans with fav character crocheted in, appliqued or X stitched on.

What about a wallet ? I think there's a change purse pattern over at Lionbrand that I saw someone had made two of them, stitched them together to make a wallet. I think it was felted.. don't know if you're into that or not.

If he is young enough to be in that 'me too' stage where they all want the same thing, make the girls purses and the boy a back pack!

How old is your grandson? There are tons of things to make for young boys. There's an adorable snake scarf, there's also lots of toys. I bought a bunch of patterns on etsy too. You can look at CPC under toys there are some things there.

On etsy.com they have some really neat things. I think there's an airplane, there is a car, there are juggling chickens and a CUTE bowling set! They aren't that expensive to buy either. Oh and there are the Vroomies! I LOVE THOSE!
