Planning Fibers~ Sarah and I decided it would be fun to challenge ourselves during the Olympics. We weren't able to join or start a team for the Ravellenics, but we wanted to participate in the fun knitting that is happening. We each gave ourselves a goal of finishing five things, because there are five rings in the Olympics logo. Here are our goals.
