Olympic Knitting Curling Team

curling3  Jessalu and I are proud to announce (a little late, but what the hey), the Knitting Olympics Curling Team.

The eligibility rules?

  1. You must have wavy or curly hair.
  2. If you don’t have curly hair, liking it is okay, too.
  3. If you don’t like it, but know someone who does, you’re in.
  4. Liking the button is enough to get in.
  5. If you’re not participating in the Knitting Olympics but want to cheer us on? You’re in, too!

How’s that for simple?

Oh, and as a PSA for you wavy/curly knitters–if you haven’t been there, may I recommend the Naturally Curly message boards? Not only is the main site interesting, they have a great store for hair-care products (not all of which are geared towards curly hair–it’s healthy that matters most), but most helpfully, the message board forum has just a wealth of information for ways to keep hair healthy and to encourage the curl. Go check it out!

  1. Oh my! I have curly hair, I like curly hair, I know someone who does and I like the button. I will cheer you on! I also have an odd obsession with the sport of curling. I think I’m in, yes?

  2. I think we may have something here – I have a new member already, too! Yippee!!

  3. Quick. Sign me up! BTW, happy belated birthday to your mom. When you’re lucky enough to have a good one, you sure do cherish them.

  4. Count me in too!

  5. Just what I need — another reason to be jealous that my brother (and my husband and my son) got the curly hair and I’ve got the straight stuff! ;-)

  6. I guess a curly haired husband counts too? Well you know I love curly hair! Oh yeah, I forgot…I’m not doing the Knitting Olympics! :)

  7. Oooh, ooh, I have baby fine wavy hair that drives me crazy. DH has so much curl that drives me crazy too. I just wanna button.

  8. Oh! Right there with that. My hair so qualifies!!!

  9. Okay, I’m one fine & wavy knitter & would love to be part of your team. Onward & Upward (or downward in my case. . . I’m doing a top down raglan). Knit on!

  10. ok, my hair is curlier as i get older. it was stick straight as a kid, but now i have curls all over (the grey ones mostly, sigh). mark (my fiance) has very curly hair, and it’s down to the middle of his back. yum! yeah, i can dig the curling team

  11. I’m not doing the Olympics either, but I do have wavy hair and I will cheer you on with as much gusto as I can. Oh, and I think Chappy should be on the team too. His curls are adorable!
