He Says He Loves Them

What can you knit for a University of South Carolina Gamecocks fan who plays ALOT the occasional game of golf that he is guaranteed to love and use all the time?



I knit the Five Wood, Three Wood and Driver covers using Laura's Loop:  Knit Golf Club Covers pattern on The Purl Bee.

 

 

 
 


Then The Hood a/k/a USC Gamecocks fan said, "Can you make a putter cover?"  And I thought to myself, "I don't see why not.  I'm so smart and all."  (hehe)

The Hood has an Odyssey White Hot XG Rossie putter.  So I took the 5 Wood pattern and modified it...

This first attempt was okay but had design flaws.  Notice I was so optimistic, though, I finished it completely and even put in the color changes.  :-}


So I modified again...

This second attempt was better, but not there yet.  By now I'm wondering if I really am as smart as I thought.  But I did stop before I finished the top!


And I modified again...

I used pink for the third attempt thinking if I got it right, I could use it.  There were still issues with the backside that covers the face of the putter.  I shortened the bottom and top so as not to waste time.  I am smart!  :~\ 


Once again I modified...

This fourth attempt was on point.  The slant was right and it fit the flat side of the putter exactly. 


Finally...



He says he loves them. But then, he has to say that. ;-)
