While the Olympics are taking place in Vancouver, Canada during Feb 12-28, 2010, many knitters on Ravelry are challenging themselves to two weeks of intense knitting while cheering on our athletes.
I decided to try to knit a sweater for myself out of fingering weight wool. I cast on during the opening ceremonies last Friday night, and during the first 4 days of the Olympics, I have knit about 10″ of the body.
As I have never completed an adult size sweater in less than 5 weeks (and the quickest kids size sweater took me 3 weeks), it will be a challenge. But I’m looking forward to the attempt. 
The sweater pattern is improvised. I’m using 100% Sockenwolle from Wollmeise, and 2.25 mm needles. The colourways are Dani (as you can see, it’s a mix of brown and blue) and Ebenholz (dark brown).
Eek – more Wollmeise!!
Go girl – Anna – can not wait to see your results…
