So my "Knitter's Olympics" training thus far has been, well, non-existant. I have the buttons, and I know what yarn I want to use (Malabrigo) - but I don't even know if they have anymore, particularly in the color I would like, at my LYS. I also have no clue of what pattern I will be using. I know that I want to do a raglan-y pattern but with saddle shoulders, and if that makes sense to you and you know a pattern that looks like that, well, let me know, please!
The other training I've been trying, slowly, to do, is to get the body of Zauberflote out of the way before the Olympics start. Given that I have 10 more rows before I even get to the front neck, I am not sure if this is an attainable goal. I think I have 39 rows before I graft the shoulders together, so I doubt it. But only time will tell!
And I promise that there will be a photo soon. The next couple of days will be busy, because the lovely baby girl for whom I knit Rosetta, and her big brother (he got the Elephant vest!) are coming to town tomorrow! Yay!
