To Knit or Not to Knit

The question really isn’t about knitting but whether to participate in the knitting Olympics or not. The Yarn Harlot is hosting a knitting challenge over the duration of the winter Olympics. Participants cast-on when the flame is lit and must be finished before the flame is extinguished.

I am thinking about restarting the felted slippers (the ones that I complained about a few weeks ago) tonight. Restarting totally and attempting to be done before the end of the winter games. Yet it seems crazy and impossible.
