Olympian?

Well, we’ll see. But I’ve selected a challenge for the Knitting Olympics, and I’ve got the yarn, and I’ve got the (current) pattern (draft), and I’m ready.

The challenge: Knit up the next design so that I can wear it to SPA in a couple of weeks. Think I can do it?

What are your Olympic knitting projects, if you’re playing along?

    I am finally knitting my Henry VIII kit from Virtual Yarn. I’ve had it for over two years and the intimidation factor is HUGE!

    I realize I am not going to finish it during the Olympics but I am shooting to get the body done.

    Sounds like a good plan! Beautiful yarn and color! Happy Ravelympics to you! I’m also really excited! The competition starts in 4 hours here in Montreal. I’m knitting Monkey socks in Malabrigo!

    Good luck! Looks like you will have fun playing with some gorgeous yarn. I am trying fair isle for the first time. A pair of socks from Sensational Knitted Socks.

    I’m still debating…I have a few hours to go, mittens/gloves in color work, socks in color works, clapotis…just anything out of my queue. I’ve got 3 hours, right.

    I am not OFFICIALLY participating in the Olympics since I cast on prior to today, but my private Olympics goal (unless they’re some kind of finish WIP event on Rav) is to finish Morgan’s Flower Garden! 1.5 fronts, 2 arms, and a bunch of finishing to go!

    Can’t wait to see this!!

    I’m not really doing the Olympics, but I’ve just frogged something old to turn it into something new. Which I also hope to be sporting at SPA.

    No promises, since I have kids all this week though…

    Oh that Calmer is killing me! I’ve never seen it in a dark color like that–wowza. Well, I cast on for Pammie’s Feb. Lady Sweater in some garden variety Cascade 220, and I also have a fantasy about making another Back-to-School U-Neck vest. Har.

    I’m being overly ambitious and trying to get all of my stash posted on Ravelry, it needs to be done cause I frequently forget what I have. It’s gonna be a seriously time consuming process.
