I’ve been sitting here for the last hour trying to figure out an appropriate pattern for the Knitting Olympics. Yeah, I saw the challenge right after Stephanie posted it, but I just thought “right, not doing that!” Until I saw all of the other knitters agreeing to the challenge…I’m not sure if it’s exactly peer pressure, but I’m starting to feel the NEED to participate. So now the question is, “what to make?” I haven’t made a wrap or shawl and some lace knitting on that scale seems like it would be a good challenge for the 16 day time frame. I even have kid silk (not Rowan) in the stash (almost like a sign). However, I am still at a loss as to what pattern to choose. Another problem as well…I’m going to be out of town for part of that time. I usually knit socks on the plane, but I know a pair of socks in 16 days wouldn’t really be much of a challenge. Hmmm, unless I say something like 3 pair of socks??? Anyway, whatever it is should be easily managed and portable. Suggestions?
I finished and felted Jim’s green clogs. The colors look great together…Knit Picks WOTA in evergreen, fern and avocado.
