Yay knitting! Knitting in the round on double point needles is a bitch, but it's probably good to do at least one object that way, especially as all hats eventually make you go to 4 needles anyway. After that, you can move on to circular needles, which, for me, is much easier to manage.
Dude, Doctor Who... I could go on and on forever. I will attempt to contain myself for the purposes of like, not boring the shit out of you.
Episodes
S1: "The End of the World", "The Empty Child/The Doctor Dances", "Boomtown" (I'm kind of alone in liking this so much? But I think it's awesome), "Bad Wolf/Parting of the Ways"
S2: Tooth and Claw, School Reunion, The Impossible Planet/The Satan Pit, Army of Ghosts/Doomsday
S3: Smith & Jones, and honestly, the whole back half of S3, from Human Nature through The Last of the Time Lords, is a solid as hell.
S4: All of it. Seriously. If I have to pick favorites, I would say "The Planet of the Ood", "The Silence in the Library/Forest of the Dead", "Midnight" and "Turn Left/Stolen Planet/Journey's End"
I like all the specials (Christmas specials and the year of specials) except The Next Doctor and Planet of the Dead.
Fic
I haven't read Doctor Who fic regularly in a while, and my delicious recs are so old, I don't know if I still like those fics, if you know what I mean? However, off the top of my head:
Comes the Physical - a short, gorgeous gen piece with Martha and the Doctor and the marvel of Time Lord biology.
Five Times After Goodbye - a story that is a bit dated as it was written before Martha set foot in the TARDIS onscreen, if I remember correctly, but I still love it.
The Hypothetical Love Affair - The not love affair of the Doctor and Donna Noble. a "Midnight" post ep, I think?
Downtime - This is a "missing scene" fic of the time that elapsed between "Christmas Invasion" and "New Earth". Rose is coming to terms with the Doctor's regeneration and the Doctor's figuring out what kind of man he is.
All my saved Doctor Who fic links are here. There's a LOT of Doctor/Master and a good bit of Doctor/Martha and Doctor/Rose, and some decent gen fic (love love love me some good solid gen fic). I might be mortified at the stuff I saved back in the day if I look too closely, as my tastes have surely changed, so like, don't judge. ;)
Vids
For Doctor Who, it's a no brainer. If you love the Tenth Doctor (or even if you don't), you have to watch Handlebars. It's seriously one of my favorite vids of all time.
Here are my Doctor Who vid links. Some are better than others. I'll usually watch just about anything becuase I hope to one day force myself to vid something. :)) There are some good VVC vids in there, too.
