Stephanie from Yarn Harlot, the organizer and brains behind the Knitting Olympics, posted the Gold Medal up for the winners to post on their blogs. The accomplishment of the many knitters is truly amazing. Reading “The Podium,” Stephanie’s posting today really tells it all.
For those of us who didn’t finish, for whatever reason, Stephanie left […]
But it isn’t me. :) That’s okay - I’ll post my trials and tribulations later. I just had to show this off. This is the shawl my 15 year-old daughter made for her Knitting Olympics project. She chose the yarn and did an original design, sans pattern - just from […]
The Knitting Olympics are just about to wrap up. I went checking around to see about people’s progress. There are a lot of people who have already finished and some that are pushing to get that last little bit done. Some, like me, have realized it just isn’t going to happen this year.
So here […]
During the Knitting Olympics, I am sure many who crochet feel a bit left out. Of course, crocheters are welcome to participate and I hope many are working on projects with their knitting sisters. I was looking around at crochet blogs today, and I found a beautiful doily pattern that Brandy, a crochet […]
There are few things, besides yarn, that knitters love more than patterns. Free patterns are even better. Now, if you are participating in the Knitting Olympics, you should bookmark this and come back to it later. Twelve days left in the marathon - hope your project is going well!
These patterns I have […]
I found something really fun today - it should be a great surprise for the Star Trek fans out there - particularly those who are loyal to the original series. These are graphs of the Star Trek logo, Captain Kirk, Mr. Spock, Scotty, and all of the regulars that make up the original ST […]
The Knitting Olympics are in full swing now and progress is being duly noted. The sense of competition, in terms of “personal best,” is alive and well… and in some cases, sweating bullets.
I found a posting the other day that I think is important.
Visit Zeneedle… Needleart as Life - she has a great way […]
I have my project started for the Knitting Olympics and I have been surfing around reading about other people’s projects and how they are doing on the first day of the challenge.
Stephanie (YarnHarlot who has organized this whole thing) has The Knitting Olympics Athletes Pledge up on her blog. I printed a copy to […]
There is a team for the Knitting Olympics that is exclusively for people who haven’t made up their mind about what to make. There is another team for loom knitters. I have some links that may solve the problems of one group and thrill the members of the other group.
Decor Accents, Inc., has […]
No pressure at all by that title! Tomorrow is the big day. It is the day to cast on and begin your Knitting Olympics project! Have you decided what you are making? It is okay to do a gauge piece before (all athletes have to warm up, after all!) but you […]
For the love of knitting, crochet, spoolknitting, spinning and weaving!
