ETA: I Don’t know why this stupid thing is not saving my corrections. Pics are at the knit blog or on flickr.
The Olympics were kind of “eh” this year, aside from the figure skating. Man, I love me some figure skating. The snowboard cross was kind of cool to watch, too, but for the most part, I didn’t really care about this Olympics.
Well, aside from the fact that I joined the Knitting Olympics. Let me tell you, dear reader … I am an Olympic Medalist!
I finished the sweater (yes. SWEATER!) in two weeks. The night of the Olympics, I ended up going out to the movies w/ Teresa & Fam, and I didn’t really start on it until the Saturday morning. There was also one day during this Olympic run that I didn’t knit one single stitch. So, I was kind of scared I might not finish, but I did!
Here’s an icky picture of me wearing it:
The mirror’s dirty, so ignore that.
Other than the fact that the front is a *little* too short for my liking, I love this sweater.
The shortness’ll go away as the pounds do, so it’ll be fine.
It’s so warm and soft, so I know I won’t get to wear it much before next winter, but I’m going to enjoy it while I can.
I’ll get TC to take a picture for me tomorrow so I can get a decent pic, instead of the “in the mirror” shot.
Now I don’t know what to knit! I have 2-3 projects for OTHER PEOPLE to finish, and about 3-4 on top of that, plus all the new ones I want to start. Ahh! There isn’t enough tiiiiime!
