I'd seen PS on Rav but wasn't sure what it was all about. Once I realized that I wouldn't have to make things on a strict timeline, I jumped in at the end of spring/ yellow. What a wonderful way to *pay attention* to the world around us! I started noticing things that normally wouldn't register. At work I take a daily walk with a friend and I even got him thinking about PS and really looking at things. I actually did manage to make something for summer/red, a shawl in Fiberphile sock, colorway Elvira (don't you love that?): http://www.flickr.com/photos/91382103@N00/3818820573/in/set-72157601901732766/ Looking forward to whatever is next!

The mosaic is stunning, you've captured the essence of the complete circle perfectly. Beautiful work of art! Has it been a year already?

I think this way of PS is such a great idea and Iwanted to take part in the beginning – but never really started. So I am waiting for the next round. Maybe I get further than only planning then.

It made me much more aware of my surroundings, and pushed me to go out with the camera a bit more. I also discovered that I actually quite like yellow :-) I have really enjoyed watching the Flickr group and the Rav threads - some of the work was absolutely outstanding. Your photos, by the way, are very very good indeed (is jealous!) I would like to try working through a broader spectrum next time (maybe my surname has something to do with this!) - Red Orange Yellow Green Blue Indigo Violet - but how you add to this and make it fit over 12 months... All I ask is - don't clash with the Knitting Olympics!

Lot's of thoughts and started things, but nothing much finished. Still I love the inspiration I get from all the creative people out there. I need my daily dose of posts in the ravelry PS forum ;) Something entirely different: can you please show us some pics of your olympic sweaters? I would love to see how they are turning out! this years PS was also rather slow for me. Lot’s of thoughts and started things, but nothing much finished.
