Breakfast anyone?

The Bacon and Eggs Pillow is complete and has been gifted. I had a little fun with it before it left the house.





The lucky recipient was very pleased with it! It's a good thing too, because these socks were intended for him, but sadly, they aren't going to fit him.




In fact, this is the second try at making these socks. The first sock was almost complete when I discovered it was too tight for his foot. It was frogged and I adjusted stitch count and needle size... and, it's still too small!




You know how they say sometimes yarn just doesn't want to be what you think it should be? Well, this yarn wants to be these socks, just not for a man size foot. 




I guess I'll have to keep them for myself!

  4. I have enough trouble even 'cracking' the completion of the SECOND sock. Let alone after two froggings! Lovin' the Breakfast Cushion...

    1. To be honest, I'm still thinking about frogging it and making them the right size. Until I decide, I'm working on some other projects!
