A few of the things I've finished lately

The socks are from Through the Loops! Designs, the 2009 Mystery Sock KAL for Socktoberfest. This is the only pair I completed for Socktoberfest, and I didn't even complete them until mid-November. Whoops. They are done and they are wonderful, the yarn is dyed by Knitting Iris with Red Saunderswood from her Esty shop here. Nothing but good to say about this yarn, awesome color and just right for autumn.

Anne came out in the cold to help me photograph the socks, so I snapped a photo of her in the mini-Felicity hat I made for her in early September. Yeah, she needed it that early in the season, we had an early cold snap that killed all the leaves on the trees before they had a chance to turn. The hat pattern is here as a Ravelry download, I went down on the needle size, using US 4 and 6 and it fit her just fine.
