Notes

Silk and nupps are not friends….definitely not easy.
But I love how it turned out.
Miyuki metal beads to weigh it down a bit with picot edge.

08-17-14 blocking

LOVE IT!!!
Here are my mods, knit as per pattern except finished off with picot edge CO2-Bead -CO off 3 or 4 to make it symmetrical. Aggressive blocking, it’s quite large.

I really love the metal beads and will use them again, heavier than glass beads.
