Olympic knitting

Isn't it fun to have the olympics to distract us this month?  I've been knitting up a storm.  This pattern is a replica of the Ralph Lauren hats... http://www.ravelry.com/patterns/library/usa-2014-hat
I made one for 2 of my daughters.  
 

Now I'm knitting the mittens to match the hats.  The pattern is here... http://www.ravelry.com/patterns/library/sochi-mittens

Lots of knitters cast on a project during the opening ceremonies.  My friend Andrea and I decided to make these mittens.  Thanks to a long Saturday at a soccer tournament, I've already finished one!

Are you watching the olympics?  I love all of the games, especially the figure skating.   Have a great day!
