Drumroll, please

The CIC sock challenge brought in a total of:

624 pairs of socks!

There were also a number of sweaters, vests and shawls donated. Way to go, knitters!

The next challenge has been announced. This time, it's fingerless gloves/mitts for the ladies who care for the children. Goal: 150 pair by the end of March. There is a pattern in the old WWII knitting book I have been perusing lately; I think I'll give them a whirl!

Olympic update: Is the mail ever going to arrive?
