I heart Norway
For Norway produced a style of knitting that is giving me such pleasure. Here is my Olympic knitting update:
I love these stockings so far. Love them. It makes me happy to knit them. Now, I have not been the perfect fair isle knitter. Learning to knit with one strand in each hand has been a challenge and combine that with fair isle on double points—some of my stitches are uneven. But for the most part I am pleased with how they are turning out. I started on the heel flap last night—I figure I have to finish the first one by Saturday in order to finish my project by the deadline. I can taste the gold medal.

That is going to be one gorgeous pair of stockings! I'm going to the LYS to buy the Rowan pattern book tonight. I saw a couple of things I need to knit, too.
