Starting and Finishing


So I finished the headband project and right now it looks like a giant strip of bacon. Since I don't really want a big piece of pork product in my hair, I have scratched the pattern idea and moved on for now. Maybe later the inspiration will come to me.

I did finished my bag for the Knit Sock Kit Swap and I am pretty proud of it considering my lack of sewing skills. I took a class in 3rd grade but could not even get my checkerboard square pillow to have the same size squares. ( Like a good mom and dad, it is still displayed in my paren's bedroom) Take a look! I hop my pal likes it. I have all the stuff ready to go just need to pack it all up. I may wait a few days before sending it off.

I have started on another pair of socks. These are for hubby. I have relucant to knit him a pair for his size 13 feet but I am using the guides in the Sensational Knitted Socks so these should fit him well. Mesa from Knitpicks, originally for another Clapotis but I think I have enough...at least for now.
