So excited to start this project this Thanksgiving weekend. Couldn’t wait for the pamphlet, had to download booklet yesterday. Beautiful patterns & yarn, so much to be thankful for!

Oops, knitted chart as-is instead of knitting row 1, then proceeding to row 6.
Re-engineering to decrease length: knitting to chart row 24, then starting 2nd diamond on chart row 7.

After the 2nd diamond motif was done, moved onto Row 53 decreases. Used US 6 needles for this part as I couldn’t find the #7 dpn.

Fini!
Such a quick knit! Thinking of making a gazillion for Christmas presents. Very intuitive pattern. (Except for the part where I didn’t pay attention!)
