Count down to cast on!!!

I am all ready! It's almost time! I'm getting more and more excited as I sit here at work on Friday, February 10th, the official day for casting on your Olympic knitting project! I'm having people over tonight to watch the opening ceremonies and cast on all together. It should be fun! If you are in the Denver area and want to see a bunch of crazy knitters casting on their complicated projects, eating, drinking, laughing, and in general having a good time...than come join us!!
