Which means that it's Ravellenics time again, too! I've had the Team Michigan group back up and running for about a month now, and we are almost at 90 members! 90! We had just under 60 members for the London Games, so this is quite a jump. I'm wondering if I'll be able to keep up with it all!
I had some help designing the graphics this year. I just can't do them justice. I managed the Ravatars because I went with the Keep Calm theme again this year, but I just knew that the badge and banner were out of my league. BBMeltdown offered to help and came up with this badge and a matching banner. These will be our permanent badge and banner for the Winter Games, and I'm hoping I can find someone to design another badge and banner for the Summer Games in 2016. I'm thinking of a Great Lakes theme. Then we'll have one set for winter and one set for summer.
As for projects, I've decided that less is more. I want to medal this year. I didn't medal at all during the London Games. I was too indecisive about what I wanted to work on and I was too busy caught up in Wieber Fever to actually get anything done. This year, I've chosen my project early, and in keeping with this WIPdown thing I've had going on since November, I'm going to enter WIPs Dancing and finally finish my Lady Marple.

I'm further than the picture shows. The cardigan is made all in one piece from the bottom up. The only seams in the entire sweater are at the shoulder when you seam together the left and right front to the back. I have knit to the armholes, and both the right and left fronts are already done. I've still got to finish the back, sleeves, and button band/collar. Doable in 17 days? Yes, if I concentrate and don't get distracted by other projects!
And what about you? Do you participate in the Ravellenic Games? If so, what are you thinking about working on this year?
