New Finishes

My knitty bug is still well and truly biting. I did start a cross stitch a couple of weeks ago, but while I did enjoy it, I couldn't help but think I could be doing some knitting!

Last week, I went to the hospital about my eye. When I had them tested a few months ago, they thought there was something wrong with my right eye. After 3 months of worrying , everything seems to be ok. They want me to go back in January just for another look because there was something they could see but hopefully nothing to worry about.

So, back to the knitting.

First, a sock. The yarn and pattern is from a Hipknits sock club. Its only the 3rd sock I've ever done and I'm quite happy with it. I haven't stitched the toe up yet, I've got to look up how to do a Kitchener stitch to
finish it off.
















The second finish it a Curious Critter from Curious Yarns. I only started him yesterday and finished him today. There is enough for me to do another one, which I've said I'd do for my friend's son. This one has had different names already today. Terry was the first choice followed by Clive and then Shaun (as in Shaun of the Dead!) so we'll see which one we think will be best!

We've got the rest of the week off work. We had a few days at the coast (which is why so much as been done!) Tomorrow we're going to see my Grandad, Thursday is hubby's birthday and I've got a couple of things planned he doesn't know about. Friday, we've got to go back to the caravan. I thought there wasn't a lot of stuff in the car earlier when we packed it up. Thats because we left the case behind!! I'd put it in the cupboard while i finished cleaning and stuff and forgot to get it back out again!! Oh well, never mind.

I'm off now to find out how to finish off this sock then I can start the next one! I'll update again soon.
