Ravelympics: midway report

Ravelympics 2010 - Day One

I should've probably started the year by recapping the previous year, but eh. Maybe later. For now, I'm in the Ravelympics, trying to complete a WIP - spinning 100g of merino top into 3-ply sock yarn. Here's what I started with:

And progress for day 1? I did manage to make that length of top noticeably shorter, and bake both cookies and bread (from the 5-minute artisan bread recipe by Jeff Hertzberg and Zoë François), so even if I don't reach my goal, at least I won't starve trying.
