I knit a hat?

So I was discussing gifts for my BIL with my sister and she asked if I could knit him another hat.  I knit him a hat? When?  Oh about 20-25 years ago.

I had to use the Wayback machine to find this pattern!  And I have no pictures because I knit it before we went digital.

A nice pair

I just finished these. I decided to redo the toe on the first sock. I knit 72 rows before starting the decreases for the toe.  I love the feather and fan pattern so much.

I've already cast on for another pair.

One finished

I finished this last weekend and immediately cast on for the matching one. I've finished the pattern on the calf but I can't remember how many plain rows I knit before the heel! Oh well, it will look fine.

Love this so much!

I am crazy about this colorway. It's supposed to be Halloween but I see Weasley Wizard Wheezies!

Hobbi Halloween scary sock wool. Lot ss-04 col 4 witch party. I'm using the feather and fan sock pattern with a size 2 needle for the pattern.  I'll switch to a size 1 when I get to the heel.

Boo Bash

Friday I took the afternoon to do the Boo Bash shop hop.  It was fun to visit the shops but pretty lonely as my BFF couldn't go.  I bought this little mug rug kit and made it for her yesterday.  I also gave her two Halloween fat quarters and a cute vinyl sticker.

Nearly there

Well I hoped to finish Vintage Housewife by the end of August.  I very nearly made it.  My dog died on Friday and I didn't have the heart to stitch at all. She was old and she passed in her sleep but it was still upsetting.

I'll keep stitching this week and finish sometime.

A cuppa

This cute little guy is for my sister. I meant to send it home with her when she was here last month but forgot.  Oh well, the delay gave me time to figure out which trim I would add.  Her favorite movie is Young Frankenstein so I think she will really enjoy this.
