115 rows / 455 stitches.

One note about this yarn: I’ve never used it before, never even heard of it. I won it last year here on Ravelry. I soaked this shawl last night (4/10/14) and left it in the sink overnight. When I got up, the water was as clear as it was when I filled the sink! I was quite shocked that NO DYE came off this shawl. This is usually a big problem I have with all my Knit Picks yarns as well as dark Jaggerspun Zephyr yarns. So whatever they do with this yarn, they do it right!


4/7/14:
Cast on with size 5 needles and worked 14 rows. Then changed to size 6 needles for the rest of the shawl.
Rows 1-73 (219 sts; 35% done)

4/8/14:
Rows 74-99 (391 sts; 65% done)

4/9/14:
Rows 100-115 (455 sts)
