Impressed

On the CIC sock challenge, we've already exceeded our goal of 500 pairs of socks, and the final tally won't be available until tonight. Way to go!
Olympic update: Is the mail here yet?
Wherein Carol rambles on about knitting, organic gardening, cats, and whatever else is on her mind.
I have thrown caution (sanity?) to the winds, and signed up for the 2006 Knitting Olympics. I have a picture of a summery pullover in my head that I plan to create. I figure by mid-February I'm really going to be ready for warm weather, which I hope will be a goad to complete the project within the time constraints. Yarn not decided on yet; I ordered one skein each of half a dozen possibilities a couple of days ago. Gotta swatch, decide, and order in time to receive supplies before the starting gun fires on Feb. 10. Is the mail here yet?
