Mr. Edmo Stylin’
A few weeks ago in a post entitled Soul Bandage, I mentioned I’d cast on for a watchcap. It’s done now, with a couple of embellishments because the 2×2 rib was getting tedious. I added a little bit of cabling and I topped it off with SJE’s Marsan Watchcap finish. (I’m sure a billion other people have come up with this finish, but she’s the one I heard it from first. So nyaah.)
I should have put in the cabling a little bit sooner. But other than that, I like this basic setup. I’ll probably do a couple more of these before fall to stash away as gifts and emergency headwarmers.

Nice finish. Like the cabling. Edmo must know that dozens of crafty chics read this. Work it Edmo!

Love the hat. Perhaps one day you’ll publish your pattern? (hint, hint, wink, wink?)

I think Mr.Penquin is diggin’ the look, too.
Maybe you should knit him a widdle one.

V. v. cool. I’ve been considering knitting my man-friend (does that read as sleezy as it sounds?) a watch of similar provenance–maybe I’ll swipe your general idea.
