Dsc01639 I am a bad Olympian. I agreed to do socks as they are a painful challenge for me, but changed to knitting items for the Preemie Project. If I use the same amount of yarn and the same four needle technique, does it count? You can tell I’ve never been an athlete. This is the first set. It’s a bit blurry, but the one with the apple next to the hat for size comparison was worse. I hope I can do more and take a better photo.

    Ah, another St. Elsewhere junkie! I loved that program. As for the Olympics, the nice thing about the knitting Olympics is that they’re much more flexible than the real ones. The only one you’re competing against is yourself. So, yeah, I think you definitely medaled.

    My whole family is originally from Kalamazoo,MI – that’s so cool. I love your preemie project, the hat looks creamy and soft like a marshmallow. You definitely deserve a medal.
