Bub’s bunny is finally finished! What a fun little project this was! It knitted up to quickly in super soft Malabrigo and it felted perfectly! I made some adjustments to the eyes because this thing needs to be super kid proof. I did french knots over white felt, glued on, triple knotted to make sure they are staying in place! I hope she loves her little bunny that mommy made!
And I finished another project this weekend! My first full pair of socks (and they actually fit, perfectly!) I admit, these things took quite some time, but I got it right! I’m very happy and impressed with how well handknit socks fit and feel! I can’t wait to start my second pair! Hopefully this next pair will go a lot faster! These were just a simple two socks on two circs pattern, made with Knitpicks Simple Socks in Vineyard (color now discontinued). You might notice that the colors are backwards, which I think gives them lots of character. The brown is in the same place, but the tan and wine color are flip flopped. Proof they are handmade!
Bob is adorable!!!
CONGRATS on your 1st socks, they look GREAT! I’m with you, I don’t worry the stripes matching at all….as you said, much more character!
