It's the time of year when most knitters are knitting furiously.  The Yarn Harlot explains it the best, probably because it's all her idea.

My project for this year is the Vine Yoke Cardigan by Ysolda Teague.  Probably not a great surprise that I chose a Ysolda pattern since I love her designs. 

Friday night, I was at my LYS for the Opening Ceremonies.  We had plenty of good food to eat.  There were some events and medals handed out.

 

Hallie, Alisha, Donna, and Lesley are prepping for the Blindfold Knitting event.

I came in fourth in this event.  If I didn't knit with my tail end of yarn from the cast on, I may have medaled.  I placed next to last in the Speed Knitting event.  

I cast on for my project during the Opening Ceremonies.  I've been knitting as much as I can.

 

This was my progress as of around 7:30 last night–most of the right front of the cardigan.  As of this afternoon, I've finished the right front and have attached the right sleeve to the yoke.

 

My workspace at the kitchen table.  Excuse the crappy pictures.  It was dark and gloomy last night. 

 

I've failed to medal in the past two Olympics.  I will not fail again.
