I am knitting Clapotis. So is Julie.
We’re both crazy, so we’re knitting them with yarn from Blue Moon Fiber Arts.
On size US4 needles.
Here is what mine looks like!
Check back often to see how quickly I lose my mind while trying to get it all done in the given time frame. *cheesy grin*
Anywho, before the big Olympic event begins I’ve been working to clear the slate. Sadly, I was only able to finish one of the pair of socks-in-progress. But it’s cute, so yay!

Isn’t she lovely? I will enjoy working on Molly2 at the Sit N Stitch tonight, before bringing her home to wait out my Olympic insanity.
Tomorrow afternoon! Eeee!

Rosemary, your sock is too cute! I didn’t get to see it up close at the spinning guild meeting, so I’ll be checking out Molly2 tonight at Borders. And, I love your Clapotis yarn. I admire your fervor in signing up for the knitting Olympics and I’m sure you will have a good time. But, don’t stress yourself out too much with the deadline….remember, enjoy the process. : )
Your friend,
