Here are five strips and the start of the sixth. This is status as of noon today, the "official" end of the Ravelympics. So yes, I did not "win." I lost, I failed, I fell short.
But seriously? I have most of an afghan. At an ordinary gauge. Faster than I've ever done an afghan before, because I fully expect this to be finished this week. And I really can't beat myself up about that.
This picture was supposed to be a portrait of failure. But I have most of an afghan taking up most of my living room, and I've done that remarkably quickly. And that's kind of awesome.
And I've learned a lot about myself, and the way I work, and what I like and what I want to do. But I'll post about that later.

I am impressed. Apparently, deadlines -- even insane ones -- make a huge difference. So the fact that I want to make an afghan for Christmas but haven't even picked a pattern yet, let alone gotten yarn... makes your progress inspiring.
Hey--you did great--you are 5 strips, almost six ahead of where you were 17 days ago....
High 5!!!!
You know, it reminds me of the lanes in the Olympic pool...was that the plan?
