Finished my first sock ever! I took a three Saturday class and learned to make this chunky rather unattractive sock that only a mother could love LOL. But I'm proud of it. I tried starting the second one at home but I can't get the hang of the instructor's provisional/tubular cast on. I can't find any video tutorials with this exact technique which kinda pisses me off so I'll eventually go back to the yarn store and get some help casting on.
I made two Ballband Pattern dishcloths for Miss Maureen at work and I really love them. the pattern is so cool. Really wish the edges were neater looking but oh well. Can't have everything ;)
I finished up the last 4 baby hats for Maureen's storytime baby dolls.
I ran out of red yarn so the red hat didn't get a pompom :(
I finished my first baby hats for the hospital. My first hat I cast on 70 and it's a bit too big. I discovered that 60 with a size 6 needle makes the required size. I washed them (before adding the pom) to clean away any cat hair or dander and bagged them to keep them safe waiting for delivery.
I looked it up today and my county fair is two months away. I want to start thinking about what kind of knitting I want to enter in the fair! I've been procrastinating finishing up two hats and I decided I need to enter those in the fair! So maybe that will motivate me to finish them up. I also have my mom's Antler Toque that I'm really proud of that I could enter in a pinch. I think it might be neat to enter the state fair as well just for fun because why not lol
