I'm currently not a knitter.....however, I did make a few sweaters 40+ years ago....but that was the extent of my knit and purl experience.
Here's Lynn's explanation.....obviously....she's another Green Bay Packer fan: All Packers points are knit in green, opponents are yellow - one row for each point - and white indicates the end of a game. So, from top down....... Packers vs. Bears, white end of game rows, Packers vs. Seahawks, end of game white rows. I sure hope there's A LOT more green than yellow by the end of the season. I'm all set for Monday night's game ---- I'll be knitting frantically every time someone scores. Great fun!!!!!
So all you knitters......get out those needles and yarn in your teams colors and start knitting. With only 2 (or possibly 3) games played.....you can catch up! And thank you Lynn for sharing this novel way to marry football and fiber!
GO PACK GO......GO PACK GO.......GO PACK GO......GO PACK GO!!!!!!!!!!!!

I don't even want to know what mine would look like!!! Watching our Lions as I type this! Keeping fingers crossed...but we're playing against Peyton! I do love Peyton!
Sports history as told by a knitter? What a concept! Low scoring games make for long stretches of green or gold then? Perfect for those who want busy hands while watching tv.
