Round and Round Slowly Becoming a Sock



I guess it's really starting to look like a sock now. Just 10 more pattern repeats and it'll be time for the short row heel. I have just about finished the 2 Bobble Beanies for Betsy (BBB). I just need to put on the spirals which I finished today and weave in the joins. I started a new sock pattern, Bayerische. I will be doing a felted bag later this month from the Holiday Vogue Knits from Nicki Epstein. I'll keep you posted.

Bobble Beanies

Here is one of the Bobble Beanies I am making for Betsy. I spent probably 100 hours doing both hats. Wow! In this first photo, Olivia is modeling the hat:
Here is a cool pic of the inside of the hat. It looks almost as neat as the outside!:

Here is a close-up of the one finished hat:

And here are both hats together. You can see how I reversed the colors in the 2nd hat to make it different:

My socks!






Here is the one sock I have completed. It was knit from the toe-up and did short row toe and heel. It was fun! The pattern on the sock is lace-over-cable. Here's the beginning of sock #2 (afterall, it's no fun to just have one sock!):
