Some Wips and some FO


Front and back of my first Sebu glove, the tension is a bit uneven, the glove a bit wide, but I love it.
A picture of our friend with the Tychus I made for him, thanks for being a good sport and wearing it for the wedding celebration picture.


These are the two girl sized Opus I made. I have now one in yellow and black on the needles, but that might go to a future beekeeper, so I still will not have a Opus of my own.

Hat: Dancing Ladies

I really like this hat that I have found while blog surfing: Dancing Ladies.

Some Knitting Pictures

This it is the second Tychus I have cast on, the first already went to a friend for all his help. This one is for me. I think I have figured out a way to reduce the holes at the turn and as with the first I did a provisional cast on and will graft the hat.

This is my project for the Ravelympics, cast on yesterday morning which is as close to the openig as I could make it. As toe up is still a new thing for me the cast on was not so nice, but practice will improve that I think

Lastly my last pair of commuting socks that I finished. These ones are for me, out of one of the Regia balls Betty sold me. Her hubby is allergic to Regia, but I am pleased to have them. Especially I love those colors and think a sweater like that would be fabulous.

Friends

Yesterday I have given our friend, who has done a lot of taxi duty for MyGuy and keeping him company, the Tychus hat I specifically made for him. I believe he was very pleased! I threatened him with the need for a photo, but have not been able to get one yet.

MyGuy is still on sick leave, but has been able to tie his own shoes and to drive locally (stick shift is not easy if your right hand is wounded). So getting better!

Another Hat rework

Last Saturday we also had the first knitting meeting of 2010 and as usual a lot of fun. I showed the others my "slightly" oversized hat (fit for a teapot not a human head). If you want to see a picture head for this post in Nadelfee's blog. Today I had a day off but due to a cold could not do much, so I followed last Saturday's suggestions and ribbed the ribbing, decreased (64 out of 192 stitches) and reknit the ribbing. It was still a bit large on me and the colorwork was wonky. However I fear the bath I have given the slouch hat might only have helped with the second problem. I have a feeling the knitting loosened up again, but only time will tell, as the hat is currently drying.
