As you can see from the button, I have decided to participate in the 2006 Knititng Olympics. I am going to make the Checks & Charms Hat and Mitten Set. I’ve never done Color Work before (very scary). My stomach hurts already.

Retraction
Since there has been some concern about this: my Darling Sister’s legs are not actually six feet long. Which is good because it would take WAY to much yarn to make her Excessively Long Socks.
I have decided to halt production on the aforementioned socks until she actually tries the finished one on. I started thinking last night that if they don’t hit her knee, I can order more yarn, start over and increase the legnth at the knee where there isn’t any shaping to make things complicated. If I do this, I can make them as tall as they need to be. Genius. So I have packed up the sock to mail it.
