It’s day three of the Knitting Olympics and I’ve almost completed the first of a pair of fishnet stockings. Got to watch my event of the winter games, the biathlon. Really looking forward to the boardercross and the other snowboard events.

Here’s the required knit pic. You can see where I’ve started the ribbing on the cuff.

I’m not real happy with this batch of yarn. It feels like the yarn was dyed a consistent medium blue and was bleached to achieve the lighter shades and white. The darker the color the fluffier and stretchier the yarn is. The white parts are very thin and has very little elastic property. The other ball for this project is from the same dye lot so I guess I’ll see what the future yarn holds.
