Today at 7:00 a.m. was the official starting time for Chicagoans to cast-on their Ravelympic events. I chose a event that would be challenging and yet saw as a possibility of completion.
I have joined Team Chicago for the Sweater Sprint event and think I will do fairly well. As my commute started today, so did my challenge.
The first cast-on consisted of K2, Slip 1 style... it turned out unsuccessful in winning me creative points in this category. I chose to take a point deduction and restart with a K1, P1 ribbing. I think in the end when all points are tallied you will see I was wise in this decision.
I have 17 days people. When the ending ceremonies for the Olympics is upon us I should have a finished object to present.

Rock on! This is exciting. I sort of wish I had signed up, but I'm finishing those stupid flat socks :-S and I have a sweater that's been languishing for some time and spinning that's in process. I've discovered that I like to finish what I start before starting something new again :-) I'll be cheering you on from the sidelines!
You go girl! Cap sleeves make me want to cry.
