My OMG for October is completed. I set out to finish Spud and I did. It required knitting in rounds. The instructions called for the use of double pointed needles but I used Magic Loop Knitting instead. It was an enjoyable knit.
Another look at Spud with a dark background.
Beth from Cooking Up Quilts posted an encouraging comment on my last post. I told her I would post pics of my disastrous sock. Here goes.
If you look at the cuff closely in the pic below you will see that I got mixed up between knit and purl stitches.
You will also notice laddering of stitches at the sole area of the sock in the pic below.
I am definitely revisiting socks again. I just need time.

That is such a cute sheep! Thanks for linking up with Elm Street Quilts One Monthly Goal and congrats on your finish.

Hi,
Oh my goodness, Spud is so darn cute! He looks so friendly, and soft and squishy. I think the socks look great! You’re not selling them are you?? I would totally wear that – it looks like a golf sock to me. Who cares if the knit/purl are mixed up? It looks nice and soft, and I love the color. You can’t even find that color in a store – one of a kind and special. ~smile~ Roseanne

I have been thinking about learning how to knit socks. There is so much beautiful stripey yarn out there. Your socks look great to me!
