There are no pictures of the single finished graduation sock. I was in such a hurry that I completely forgot to take them. I did manage to take a blurry camera phone picture of the bag. The sock is in the bag if that helps at all.

I made the gift bag.

My cousin’s instructions are to try on the sock and let me know if it fits. Then I’ll start the second one. I haven’t heard from him yet, so I’ve had time to finish a kitty.

The bell is to warn the birds.

I knit my toys in the round so I used a “jogless jog” to match Creamsicle Tabby’s stripes. I’m not over the moon with the result, his arms and legs are curved and have a raised line of stitches. It’s not unpleasant or ugly, but it is a ways from perfection. There seems to be some disagreement about how to accomplish a smooth stripe, so there are a couple of other things I can try. in the meantime, I’ve started on a flat Butterscotch Tabby to see if I can live with the seaming. So we’ll see which looks better. Maybe have a little vote.
