Knitting Olympics Medal Ceremony

Well, there we are, the Yarn Harlot has announced the closing ceremony for the Knitting Olympics and Franklin has designed the medal, which comes in just the one variety - gold. In the end, over 4000 knitters took part, in teams from all over the world. Quite incredible! Team GB did some wonderful work and much fun was had all round.

Certificates were issued too! Wow!

Hi Gill,

I didn't enter the Knitting Olympics, but it's been fun reading about it. I was interested in your kete book - I use Maori designs quite a bit, also weaving in quilts (see blog for photos http://shirleygoodwin.blogspot.com/) but I haven't seen this book before. I'll keep an eye out for it.

A record of my journey towards "An elegant sufficiency, content, retirement, rural quiet, friendship, books, ease and alternate labour, useful life" Not there yet. Some way to go!

Name: Gill

Location: Gloucestershire, United Kingdom

I knit, I sew, I embroider, I paint and draw and occasionally keep a journal. I do funny things with paper, paint and glue, I make books and other stuff. Not much of this is of any use (with the possible exception of the socks I knit) but I find fun in everything I do. I love colour, texture, pattern and want to do it all perfectly - preferably in the next five minutes. When I'm not making stuff myself, I'm teaching someone else how to do it (or teaching someone else to teach someone else to do it)
