Eyeballs

As fast project to aid with my Halloween party planning, these eyeballs were perfect. Knit on size 1 (2.5 mm) double pointed needles with KnitPicks palette yarn in a variety of hand dyed colors (Browns 1 and 2, Blue, Green 1 and Green 2).

I knit this project in the round (I hate seaming!), which required negligible adaptations. I stuffed the eyeballs during the last 3 rounds (the iris rounds).

Fast, easy, fun. A good project for an afternoon at home. Spooky? Not really... I never thought I would say a jar full of eyeballs is cute.
