Knitters adapt.
I weighed, I measured, I ran out of yarn.
I ripped back to knit a band that would be hidden and leave ample yarn for the rest of the cap.
I like the dark, steely blue band, though, so I'll knit enough to show beyond the brim.
Onward.

#FOFriday finished the rainbowjersey I was #knitting. Proper cyclingfit. I might still make some armpieces and add on pockets. Also not sure about the sleeves. But I guess it's alright for a prototype. #menwhoknit

The Hairy Knitter Apr 10

Spring knittng, a week later.

3.5 in of "plain" ribbed cap ribbing so far. The colors remind me of eggplant - their skin, flesh, and stems.

The second ribbed cap is about 6 in long. I like the k3p2 side of helical knitting much more than the k2p3 side that would show when folded, so I turned it inside out. The rest of the cap will be solid blue.

The short sock is has passed its neat gusset to a little more than halfway along the length of the foot.

The Hairy Knitter Apr 3

Spring knittng. Two more ribbed caps on my DPNs. Something to knit when the mood strikes.
Short socks always come in handy. I finished the heel flap and turned the heel of this one, seen here from both right and wrong sides. It's DK weight cotton, so the socks will be particularly sturdy.

Here's my #WIPWednesday toot. I made nice progress on the rainbowjersey. Those of you that would argue, that's not a rainbow, that's correct. It's a rainbowjersey as in cycling. I.e. multicoloured, as opposed to the yellow jersey or the dotted jersey. I just reached the armholes and am now wondering how to do the neck with either a zip or buttons. I never did either. #knitting #menwhoknit

#FOFriday my first attempt at ajour. Newly finished and after one year of wearing it nearly continuous. Note to self; even tighter next time. #knitting #MenWhoKnit

#WIPWednesday Sock one fits her like a... ehm..."glove"? Second hem done and ready to rock. #knitting #MenWhoKnit

1 of 2 finished. I know it's not a proper toesock like my other ones, but it's for my mum, who isn't a toesock afficionado. It's a bit tight on me, so should be just right on her. With the big toe separate she can use them in flipflops. Now let's see if I can avoid second sock syndrome.
