We've got hat and socks!

So like I said I have been spreading the knitting around a lot lately but I do have some stuff to show off. First, with no picture, is the SotS3 which is 10 rows shy of clue 8 being done. Then clue 9 on Friday and once that is done it is off to the blocking board.

Next is Boob Hat number one. This one will be mine since I wanted to use it to see size and placement of colors. I think it is a little deep for most people so I will start decreases sooner on the rest of them. Color-wise I am happy.

I didn't go too life-like on the colors as I wanted them to be fun but I think it will be recognizable. I also learned a new cast on, for me at least, for these hats and I love it. The alternate cable cast on is so nice for 1x1 rib. Is there a coordinating one for other rib counts?

I also have the Mystery Sock. I am doing it Magic Loop which I have no trouble with but since it is my first time doing a sock this way I did them on separate needles. Seems less scary for some reason.

The other one is done too and waiting on clue 2 which comes out tonight at midnight eastern. Guess that means I could technically print it out and do some tonight but I think the goal for tonight is to finish the SotS3 and cast on for another hat.

I love the boob hat! I did the 3 day in Seattle in 2002--good luck and be sure to have fun!

I barely knit, but love to crochet; my 12 year old daughter is just the opposite. I will have to show her the picture of the hat.

Yay, boobs and socks! Love the Boob Hat and the sock is coming along great. I prefer doing mine on ML, too. What yarn are you using for your sock?
