Knitting Olympic Gold

Olympic_socksFor those who aren't thouroughly sick of the topic (and even for those who have), I finished my olympic project earlier last week. Pictures of them on Tab had to wair until she returned from visiting extended family.

Things I learned:
1. 2 socks on 2 circulars/simultaneous socks rock my world! I am all about the "instant" gratification of having both socks done at once.
2. I knit faster than I think I do. I probably could have finished a second pair of socks. As it was Roger was happy that I made significant progress on his sweater.
3. I would probably do this again. It was a lot of fun both doing it myself and watching other people's progress.
4. My daughter really does have rabbit feet. I fear this will get worse before it gets better.
5. Socks make great bus projects.

YAY

When she grows long ears and starts peeing orange, that would be the time to worry. :-)

Ok so I get the ears but peeing orange?

IME, rabbits tend to leave orange pee. I'd say this is due to eating a lot of carrots, but some of the ones I remember didn't eat carrots at all.
