Notes

June 29, 2013 - While this is a super easy knit, it was even too much for when I ended up in the hospital for emergency gallbladder surgery. Once I got off the pain meds, it was a quick, easy knit. I decided to stop at 36 points. I didn’t want the tails to be too long. Photos once it isn’t 103 degrees outside!

June 19, 2013 - Second ball of yarn arrived, so now I can finish it! Perfect timing, I just got to the last two colors in the first ball of yarn. I definitely want to make it longer than the 30 points it is at currently.

June 13, 2013 - Almost done with the first skein; I may try to find another skein so I can make it bigger.

June 8, 2013 - Cast on while at BlogHer Food for the Worldwide Knit in Public day.
