Bonjour! Comment allez-vous? Je suis fatigue from Le GYGIG ride, and post-ride clean-up, final house purchase negotiations, and the day job. But not too tired to tell you about a tres cool KAL pour l'ete!
Meg, the tricoteuse enchante from And So The Days Are Filled blog, has graciously invited me to co-host the 2007 Tour de France Knit Along with her, and now we want to invite you to join us. You don't have to be a Tour fan, or even ride a bike -- if you like French culture, have a summer knitting project in mind, and are looking for a fun sport to watch on the TV while staying inside with the AC or central heating, please join us! There are different categories for every type of knitter and project, and Meg has made great jersey blog buttons too!
Details can be found at The Tour de France Knit Along blog. Join us, s'il vous plait!!
Wheeee! (or should I say Oui) - count me in!

Hm...a Tour de France KAL during my Tour des Etats-Unis! I think I will sign up for the yellow jersey category.

I love your concept of the different jerseys and projects! I would love to join, but I don't know if I have any more projects in me right now. But I will see if I can come up with one :)

Oh non! Mon Francaise est tres mal. J'aime votre idee. (Translation of what I was trying to say: Oh no! My French is very bad. I love your idea.)
I'm going to read all the details later this afternoon and decide about joining. :)

What a great knitalong idea! I'll have to survey the projects on my list for this summer and see if I can squeeze any of them into the knitalong categories.
