Ravelympics: Day 7

Yeah! I finished the second sock this afternoon. They look great, and I think they'll be perfect for L this fall.

I'm not sure what I'm going to work on next. Probably my wrist warmers, since all I need to do with those is mattress stitch the seam in one and redo the seam in the other (I didn't leave a large enough space for my thumb).

Ravelympics!


I have joined Team Resolutions 2008 and entered a whopping TWELVE projects into the Games. Six of them are WIPs, 4 of them are washcloths, and 2 of them are socks (a pair each for E and L). Some of the WIPs I should be able to finish in a day or two. Some of them (like my Lacey Vee Shell) are going to take several days or more. I don't think there is a good chance I will complete half of what I am setting out to do, but it's fun to have a challenge and see how much knitting I can do in 17 days.

I can officially cast on Friday at 5am. I have a lot of training to do before then, including printing patterns, picking out yarn, finding needles, and getting it all organized into my Ravelympics Box.
