Those of you who are still recovering from the Olympics in Torino can admire the results of another remarkable international contest: the Knitting Olympics. The Knitting Olympics were initiated and organized by Stephanie Pearl-McPhee, the author of yarnharlot, of one of the most popular knitting blogs in the world. Now, Stephanie is reflecting on her experience as the organizer. Figure this: an individual blogger's idea of something that "would be fun" grew into a international 16-days-long online+offline game with more than four thousand participats.
Oh, and we saw no tears in this game: everybody won gold!
