Notes

Blanket was coming out way too big so I am switching to the stroller blanket.

This is my first time doing Fair Isle color work.

11/19/17 - I did it! It took me a little while to get my tension right since it has been a while since I have knit anything but I finally finished the first row of elephants.

I decided to add a stripe of yellow to the middle gray stripe to balance out the color since the elephants are yellow. I did 3 rows gray, 4 yellow, 3 gray.
