Crash and Burn

Yes this is our Gold medalist, crashing. Just like me...

The orange sweater.... So cute, right? Well I am 2 skeins short!!! And the yarn shop had 1 Skein!!! So that project will not see gold.

The two opening ceremonies hat....Well has anyone looked at the pattern? The chart did not match up! Did anyone else have this problem with the chart? Please tell me yes... After going back to Ravelry I did notice many of the knitters modified the hat pattern and they look GREAT! So I am going to copy one knitter and follow her pattern. Going to duplicate stitch the trees and reindeer, and carry the bottom pattern all the way around.

So that's why I never get myself into a contest. It takes me right back to being 7 and racing my bike against other kids from other playgrounds. Watching some fly right by and me doing the same.....till I looked back. And it was all over....

sorry about running short on yarn, what are you going to do about that? maybe yours is too big somewhere and we can frog enough to finish the vest.

life got in the way of my amusement over here. But knowing that life does that to me, the sweater is next winter size for the babe. I will get it done. That is golden, anyway.
I can't wait to see your hats!
