Bubbles
Bubbles was designed for the sock knitting contest, “Sock Madness.” It is featured in the bonus round. For information regarding the competition (and a whole lot of fun!), check out the Ravelry group Sock Madness Forever.
Bubbles is knit top down with a continuous textured scaley stitch pattern across the body. Its great big bubbly eyes are gently stuffed, just enough for the bobble eyed look of a bubble eyed goldfish! The fins are knit separately, then attached, and their flow will make you feel like you too are swimming. You have the option of a fin toe, or a standard knit toe.
The instructions won’t leave you guessing, and drawn examples will illustrate any points of potential confusion.
While I used goldfish colored yarn, any yarn will do.
