Approaching Glory: 2010 Knitting Olympics Here I Come

2010 Knitting Olympics Here I Come
By: Susan A. Belcher

February 12, 2010

Four years ago I took part in one of the most fun things I've done - the Knitting Olympics. Because Ravelry was hosting a bunch of Olympic stuff for knitters, Stephanie aka: Yarn Harlot, had seriously considered not doing the Knitting Olympics again. Thankfully, she switched gears and it's a go. To see what I did four years ago click here.

This year I am going to attempt two items. The first project is the baby sweater/dress Helena by Alison Green Will. It is available online free here. I love it and think it's adorable. I want to make mine with buttons instead of the ties though.HelenamediumQuill Kinda like the one seen here by Quill. Hope mine turns out looking this good!

I also am going to make a pair of booties to match. I'm going to use another freebie pattern which you can find here. Aren't they just the cutest? Booties So - tonight when the torch is lit. I start to cast on for one of my projects - and the race begins! I've got till the torch goes out to finish my projects. Going to the gold :)
