Ravellenic Challenge 2012

Here's the progress I made during the Olympics on my Ravellenic projects:

1. Homespun Granny Afghan- This was my MAIN project and I must say that even though this won't be finished by the closing ceremonies.......I got quite a bit done on it! I only have 3 more blocks to sc onto the last strip! Once that strip is sc to the main afghan and an edging added, it will be done! I know what you're thinking......what about ALL those ends to weave in? HA! I've been weaving in all those ends as I go! See this post  for a tutorial of how to do that.
2. 3-Hour Cowl- By the second day of the Olympics I was SO pleased with my progress on the afghan..... I went ahead and cast-on this project as a travel project. I probably should not have done this as my vacation ended the third day of the Olympics. After I went back to work, (along with some other things I had committed to) I didn't get alot of knitting or crocheting time, so I had to abandon this project halfway through to continue to make progress on my afghan. Now we all understand why this blog is named "My Life's Little Distractions"!
3. Charity Blocks- No progress. Didn't begin any of them. These will be waiting for me AFTER the Olympics!

Even though I didn't complete any of my projects......The Ravellenics helped push me to TRY to finish up a 5 year-old project. So, that's a good thing!
