Chose the Stellar 12 ply on 5 mm needles because I wanted it really squishy. The yarn calls for 6 mm but I prefer the 5 mm’s and my little swatch is fine with that.

I decided to knit one extra of Chart 4.
Unfortunately I forgot the M1 once a ways back so I am one stitch down in my count. I can see it - I hope others can’t.
Not happy with my join between first and second ball of yarn however, I hope that is just me.
Join between 2nd and third is acceptable - done on the right side, first stitch knitted with both old yarn and new yarn then do next four stitches weaving ends on back side with new yarn only. Worked well.
