my medal

okay, i didn't finish in time...but i tried!! i almost made it.
i feel like the 14 canadians who got 4th place...
well, i'm giving myself a medal.
i did start 4 days late and managed to almost get it done.
okay, maybe i feel like the marathon runner that takes 10+hours to finish--everyone else has gone home the lights are out and they're still running....
here's my medal:

they're criteria is a sliver medal if you got 2/3rds done....

i feel successful, and as the harlot says: "It takes a village to freak out non-knitters...and there is strength in numbers."

i think i freaked a few people out...

i finally found enough buttons to finish the sweater....i will post a picture late today...
