A Finished Object!

First up is one that my Father-in-law made for me; this is to help me when I'm darning socks; it's a sock egg made from a random bit of wood he had in his stash.   It is cracking slightly on one side so I hope that doesn't get any worse, if it does he's promised me a new one, I hope this one stays ok though as I love the grain on it.

I can't test it yet as all my socks are currently in one piece; but I'm sure it won't be long before I need to use it.

My finished object is Sheepie.   I'm not going to do a lamb just yet cos for some reason Sheepie has always felt like a boy.

Isn't he lovely?   I really like his eyes; real sheep eyes.    I think he'll go in the sewing room to keep an eye on my fibre.  One nice handspun and handknit sheep with a little commercial yarn and some embroidery floss.
