I am not to be trusted with "just winging it"

Well, ok, in the past it's mostly turned out ok, but not this time.

I've knit one of two socks for the child for christmas. I though it would be a nice tradition to knit him socks to put in his stocking every year. There will be no second sock.

However, I'm heading down the road to having lots of single socks to make a sock advent calendar with one day.

Thankfully I did try the first one on him before I got TOO far on the 2nd. It so does not fit. I'd frog it except it's done, and the ends are woven in. And there's the sock advent calendar to work on, and I don't really like that Koigu anyways. Plus, I have enough yarn to just keep going and make 3 instead of 2. If I find the fortitude.

Great. I'm winging it on a plain hat for a nephew which may already be late, depending on what I decide is the appropriate date for the gifting. I really hope mine turns out on the first try. I'm working top-down and haven't actually figured out what size I'm doing yet.

Hope your socks turn out on redo. Or not if you decide not to redo.
