Notes

11/30/14 - Doing the toddler size of “Squares.”

12/2/14 - I thought this was close to “DK” weight, but I suppose it’s thicker? I did 4 repeats of the squares pattern, and then had to do the crown because I didn’t have enough yarn to do the 5th pattern repeat AND the crown. (I was short about 3 yards!) So, I did not have the full height as per the pattern, before doing the crown.

I also had to “fudge” the crown after the 3rd or 4th row because the numbers didn’t match up, and the last row, I K2tog across to get the number of sts down to just a few for the very top. It looks great!
