More FOs

I finished D's slippers, they just need to be felted.






I also finished a swirl wash cloth.






And I so liked the swirl pattern I decided to make a hat for K with the same pattern at the top. I am also going to add some shaping to it so that it will cover her ears. I'm just making it up as I go along.

String bag

I decided that I wanted to make something for myself so this week I made 1 and a half string bags. lol The half is because I thought I had more of the yarn I started with, but of course, didn't. So I started again with other yarn and completed a bag. I love it. I am going to use it for when we go to the Library and when I have a few more made I'll use it for a shopping bag.






I don't like the white though, so I am going to dye it at some point next week.

Socks Done!



Yay! I finally finished the socks (except for weaving in the ends, but that doesn't count). I'm so relieved to have them done. And now I'll start some more, lol. Yep, I'm a glutton for punishment.
Here is some yarn I dyed for D's slipper socks she wanted rainbow colors and this is what I came up with. Yes I know it is sideways but I have no idea how to turn it now that it is on here. (I forgot to turn it before I uploaded it).

Longies

The longies for the KAL are done, and they turned out great.




They have a Fibonacci sequence stripe on the legs. Here is a close up.



They should fit Little T for quite a while, probably for the whole winter. The cuffs will roll down another 2.5 inches.



Also, they look like they will fit N, but she refuses to try them on. The little butt! LOL



I've finally finished the heels of the socks with NO holes. YAY!!! But now I've decided that they are not to be for Jolene, because I was naughty and bought new yarn that she will like better. Instead the socks that have been my nemesis for so long will go to Janiece. Which is good because honestly I am getting sick of them and she has smaller feet. LOL
