Whew! And thanks to the wonderful Yarn Harlot for providing the online knitting world with such a great challenge. I’ve loved reading about what people chose and the progress they made, seeing the teams form, and being involved with something so large and *cool*. This has been so fun — my knitting is rarely so directed and purposeful, and I was delighted at how quickly it all went when I made it an evening priority.
I never envisioned myself as the mother of an Olympian! Very fun. ( : Congratulations on your Olympic victory – the scarf is beautiful!!
Wow. Absolutely beautiful.
awesome! I hope you wear it to knitting this Wednesday – I’d like to see it and missed you last week.
