100 Days of Making: Day 69

#day69 of #100daysofmaking: I'm so exited! I got my very first real project bag from @willowrose0816 RainStorm Studios!! I can now graduate at least one of my projects from the gallon ziploc bags I normally keep them in 😳 I love this RainStorm bag because of the window so I can see my project still - also the fabric is so cute and it's so well made. Thanks Kristine!!

100 Days of Making: Day 68

#day68 of #100daysofmaking: I finished my Sockhead hat!! Done in @theflyingkettle Huggin' Molly. I did 8" of body instead of 9" because it was seeming huge, otherwise I followed the pattern as written. I'm not a hat wearer and I've never worn a slouchy hat so we shall see if I ever end up wearing this, but it turned out ok. The colors are awesome and the yarn was great to knit with.

100 Days of Making: Day 67

#day67 of #100daysofmaking: I actually finished these baby leggings a few weeks ago but never got around to photographing and posting them. They are another pair for my daughter in @hauteknityarn Pampered Sock in Peacock. It's an MCN blend, because every baby needs cashmere leg warmers, right?

100 Days of Making: Day 66

#day66 of #100daysofmaking: Not my most interesting project to knit or photograph but I really want a finished sweater and I hope this Kakomu is going to be awesome. In Knit Picks Lindy Chain which is a linen cotton blend, it will be good year round, if I can just get it off the needles. I finished the back today and started sleeve one. Just a zillion miles more of reverse stockinette to go!

100 Days of Making: Day 64

#day64 of #100daysofmaking: I think the end date of this challenge has passed/is coming up quickly, but since I've been posting sporadically I'm a bit behind. I was not knitting every day on purpose for a while but lately, I've been knitting most days but just not bothering to post about it. Partly because I'm not knitting a lot and my progress on everything is very slow but also because I'm lazy. This is my Misti Alpaca Sock that I ripped and restarted the Dangling Conversation with since I had been doing the pattern completely wrong. There's not much progress on it so I'm just showing you the pretty cake of yarn.
