Olympic Gold!!!

Wheee-haw! Another knitting olympics gold for Team Canada / Team Hooker! I finished my Canada sweater! (Seams sewn, ends woven in and everything.) I can't believe I actually knit a *whole* sweater during the olympics. :) Here's pictures:

(Yep, that second one is a crappy auto-timer photo taken after midnight. There's even a few flash-bulb pixies come to admire the sweater. I'll get better photos on my blog one day...)

Oooooo Canada, our home and native land, true patriot love in all thy sons command...

Congrats on the gold! The sweater looks great (I hope you are not allergic to it and you can continue to wear it -- you may want to check into Reatyne (it sets the dye better than vinegar).

Excellent job. I really like it a lot. I hope after all is said and done, you will be able to wear it. It seems a shame to work that hard on a sweater and then be allergic to it.

Your sweater is really cool. You definately deserve the Canadian Gold!! Further on the topic of cod liver oil. It can't hurt, give it a try for a couple of months. For your estrogen, research vegetables that have a bit of estrogen in them, such as yams.

Thanks everyone!

wpggal... I'm on the pill (for cramps), so I don't think I need more estrogen.
