I originally planned on becoming a Spectator Knitter during the Olympics but I just couldn't resist joining the almost 3000(!) knitters for the Knitting Olympics. What will I knit? I know it's supposed to be a real challenge but I'm going for a small Clapotis and a pair of socks. Not much of a challenge stitch wise but time wise maybe. Let the games begin!!
My mom reads my blog sometimes, and she thought the whole Olympic thing was a joke until I told her otherwise. She can't believe there are more than 3000 people as crazy as I am ;)
Good luck to you! I'm knitting a sweater for myself, right on the heels on knitting a sweater for my grandmother (in 18 days... don't get me started).
I got your package yesterday, and it was just wonderful! So personalized and thoughtful! I love it! I'm going to use the chibi to seam up the above mentioed sweater - and the yarn is just beautiful. And Biker Chick mints! Ha!
Hiya from San Francisco!!! I just started my blog today!! So I'm still trying to figure out how to work it. You have an awesome blog.....and the knitting olympics sounds like waaay to much work! I'm trying to figure out how to add pics to my blog....so once I get it up and running, I'll send you a link so you can check out the boring life we have in CA! :)
I am a 30-something dental hygienist living in MN with my Weimaraner Casey, and missing my Boxer Flea. My husband Kyle is my best friend. I drive a 10 year old truck and a 9 year old motorcycle. My brother is currently serving in the US Air Force stationed in New Mexico. I love Rice Krispie bars, all things Tangerine/Mandarin Orange and Pistachio, Peanut M&M's, caramel, Jelly Bellys, comfortable shoes, cowboy/rodeo fabric, warm blankets, handmade quilts, soft pillows, really good chocolate and lazy days. I dislike litterbugs, dry hands, burned popcorn, slow drivers, below zero days and poor service & dirty silverware at restaurants. I'm currently enjoying my new Android phone, working on my UFO's and reading Recalculating on my nook.
I'm looking forward to Christmas!

P.S. Glad you're one of them!
