Finished Objects Friday; UFOlympics Post #2
The Olympics have been good for my knitting this time around. It's hard for me to imagine that I hadn't even picked knitting back up again at the time of the last Olympics, in Winter 2006.
These socks were originally started back in October of 2007. This is my first completed FO for this Olympics!
Project Specs
Yarn: 2.1 skeins of Panda Wool
Needles: DPNs in size 00 for cuff, size 0 for basketweave, & size 1 for plain remainder of sock.
Pattern: My standard Plain-Vanilla, with basketweave on the leg. 80 stitches around for Ladies size 9 foot.
Finished: August 13 2008 (Knitting was finished during the Women’s Gymnastics Team Competition August 12th, & Kitchenered early morning of August 13th.)
Project Specs
Yarn: 6-7 skeins of Zitron Prisma Mohair blend (started multiple skeins to match stripes -- have about 2 full & 2 partial balls left, plus some odds & ends.)
Needles: Bamboo sized 8 & 9 (US)
Pattern: Women’s Side to Side Cardigan #202 by Diane Soucy from Knitting Pure & Simple
Finished: August 14 2008 (Knitting was completed & bound off during the Women’s Gymnastics All Around Competition August 14th, shown live in the USA on Thursday evening.)
This sweater was originally started back in January of 2007. This is my second completed FO for this Olympics!
