Beginnings
No yarn yet. I've got a magazine with a possible pattern contender, but I haven't had time to look at it yet. It's one of those British magazines that comes in a package and I haven't even had time to get it out of the package. I have, however, wrapped five Christmas packages already.
1. You may NOT start your sweater before December 26th. You may however buy the supplies in advance. You may swatch before December 26th.
2. You must report on your progress at least once per week, however, gloating early and often is totally permissible.
3. Whoever completes their sweater first - that includes sewing it together, blocking, etc., WINS. In which case the other two will mail her something fun.
4. We will continue on to second place. The last place contestant will then also send something to the second place winner.
My plan is to pick my pattern this weekend and start swatching!
