According to the ticker that Steph has posted on her site, 56% of the Winter Olympics have elapsed. Fifty-six percent of the time I have allotted myself to knit Ene. Here is my progress so far:
Want to see her big? OK!
I haven't posted the timer on my own site for fear panic would ensue. Now that I have been sidelined for 48 hours of the 16 short days allotted to me, I am well past the point of panic. I am resigned. My less than efficient immune system allowed one bad cold to become one full blown flu, and as the old folks tell me all the time, I would have had to die to get better. Today is the first time I have even turned on the computer (or picked up the knitting) since Friday. I notice that Amanda has made true on her promise to become my official cheerleader. What a great friend I have made though this ephemeral thing we call the internets. I plan on catching up with all the knitters, and cheerleaders, shortly. But ya'll, I have some serious knitting to do. And only 44% if 16 days to do it in.
Wish me luck!

You're keeping pace with my Team College Hill Ene knitters - the pattern really picks up after the border - really just 2 pattern rows off-set and repeated.
You can do it!

So sorry about that silly distraction known as the flu. If I lived closer I'd have come and done some pinch-knitting for you. Keep on keepin' on Leah!
BTW: Ene is just gorgeous!

Leah, sorry to read that you've been ill, but that notwithstanding I think you're doing amazingly well. It's going to be so beautiful when it's finished, and it will be. Oh yes.
