Bow Sock
« on: December 07, 2009, 07:53:15 am »
I just bought a Bond Knitting machine on a whim (it was real cheap) on EBay, and this is the first thing I've knitted on it. It is a 76" bow sock with a built-in pocket for an extra bow string, and stringer, and an integral shoulder strap. I have my home-made 70" Hickory flatbow in it. I made the pattern up as I went along (I don't know how to knit). It took me about 40 minutes to knit the pieces, and maybe 2 hours to hand-seam them together.

I think I am going to knit me a hunting sweater with a built-in quiver, and intergral small-game bag next...

This thing is way to cool!!!!

Semper Fi!
