multitasking

I used a plastic bowl to block the tapestry yarn hat. Kyle saw it sitting on the kitchen counter, and found a use for it. So should I lightly felt it and cut an opening into it so it can take on a new life as a tea cosy? On the sock progress front, in 20 days Da Socks went from this: to this: The next evening I finished heel#1: And yesterday morning I woke up early, so I grafted heel #1 closed. I did heel #2 yesterday afternoon/evening, and just need to graft it closed. I don't have a photo of it, because my camera macro function wouldn't be able to handle the closeup, but I managed to kitchener stitch heel #1 closed purlwise. With the Vogue Knitting book open on my lap the whole way through. What happened was that I was afraid that I was looping the yarn over itself, so I would "correct" it as I went along. I'm going to try to do it correctly for heel #2.
