Knitting Projects Up for Grabs

I'm getting close to done with everything in my "for real" knitting queue, including one Secret Project. Does anyone want anything? I make no claims on speed, I think it took me two years to get to doing the squid hat for [livejournal.com profile] kelkyag,, but if it's something for someone's kid, I will certainly attempt to make it sized for the kid at the time it's done rather than the time it's requested. :)

Oh, right, and socks! My favorite pattern for cotton socks is the Sodera sock pattern. It has a lot of yarn overs and knit through back of loops which seem to make it work. I used "On Your Toes Bamboo" for those.

My leafy lacy socks use plain old Knit Picks cotton and seem to work fine. They're short, so they can't slide down very far.
