Stripes

I've been doing a lot of proofreading (and it's been hot!), so I've made great progress on small, simple projects:



The socks from the race (the second one is finished too)...



... and a matching hat.

The yarn is one of Blue Moon Fiber Arts' sheep to sock (or shoe?) kits--8 ounces of their roving, which I spun and plied as a three-ply. I split carefully and kept the colors in order, in hopes that they'd line up. They didn't, but I like the heathered stripes it makes--more, I think, than I would have liked solid stripes.
