I love my stuffed animals, they end up in almost every picture I take of my knitting. This project is killing two birds with one stone. The ears are pink because I didn’t check the yardage before casting on. Lesson learned. I think I’ll chalk it up to a happy accident though because I actually like the ears this way.

The Pattern: Ysolda’s Elijah

The Yarns: Patons Decor in “Rich Gray Heather”, Louet Gems in “Caribbean Blue” & Sandnes Garn Smart in “4715″.

The Needles: US size 5/3.75mm

These socks are going to keep my grandma’s feet warm in chilly Edmonton, Alberta. This was my first pair of socks. I’m really happy with how they turned out, they match and everything. I loved grafting the toes!

I used:

Yarn: (2x) Moda Dea, Sassy Stripes in “Polo”.

Needles: U.S size 3 DPNs
