Ended Official BYC Mini-Contest - What’s Your Hobby

#1. Knitting.
about two years ago I taught myself how to knit with the help of YouTube. My favourite thing is socks (since I love wearing them) but have also made all sorts of things including touques, sweaters and even a pair of pants.

#2. Sewing.
I’ve been sewing since I was a kid. I don’t sew as much anymore, but every year I make my kids’ Halloween costumes, always a theme. Here is this year, Professor Slughorn and Professor McGonagall.

This is amazing, the stitches are so tiny! How long does it take to make one sock? I'm sure you are faster now than when you started, that's how all things end up working.
Knitting is a great winter project!
 
Not an entry-

When I'm not quilting or sewing for clients and friends, and I'm not feeding the chickens....I like to make fun things as gifts. I'm happiest when I am puttering on my longarm sewing machine such as this pair of wall quilts called "Stitch Happens." Trying new things also interest me and I recently started making egg aprons.

Yes, small stitches (and yarn) for everyday socks, usually 60-70 stitches per round.

I actually knit them two at a time using a long cable needle (magic loop). I haven’t knit any socks this summer, but somewhere around a month. Depends what all is going on and how many nights I actually knit.
