Knit a mile challenge

At Andrea's suggestion, I just joined a Ravelry group called Stash Knit Down 2008, and accepted their January Challenge: Knit a Mile. Rules are:

Starts: January 5th, 11 am Eastern (that's TOMORROW!)(GMT -5 hours)

Ends: February 19th 5 pm Eastern (GMT - 5 hours)

Goal: Knit one mile (1760 yards) using stash yarn

The competition doesn’t start until 11 am Eastern January 5th and ends promptly at 5 pm Eastern February 19th ... you can pick your yarn and pattern before then. Any stash counts that gets used. If you work on a WIP or UFO, it counts. If you spin, it counts. If you start twenty two projects, the yarn you use up counts.

1760 yards. I don't have any WIPs and don't have a pattern in mind. But I DO know what I have in my stash. I might need more than one project to complete a mile ... I'll need to get crackin'!

This is exciting! I'd love to see you knit down your stash a little bit. I think a mile won't make much of a dent in your stash, to be honest, but it'll be a good start.
