Notes

The pattern as written is a total of 342 rows (19 groups of 18 rows). You need approximately enough yarn to work 5 sets of 18 rows per color:

White: 92 rows ((5 x 18) + 2)
Light blue: 90 rows (5 x 18)
Dark blue: 88 rows ((4 x 18) + 16)
Tan: 72 rows (4 x 18)

So if you want to change the gauge or width, keeping track of how much yarn it takes to knit the cast-on and first 17 rows will be approximately 1/5th of the amount needed for each color.

Started with 45 sts on US 9 needles, but then calculated the yarn usage and figured I was only going to use about half of the yarn. Then I tried 80 sts on US 10, but that would have been cutting the yarn usage pretty close, and it would have been huge. So I settled on 64 sts on US 10. That used just under 4 grams for the first 18 rows, which gives me plenty of wiggle room.

Finished with quite a bit of yarn leftover. Measures 16” x 67”, but will probably stretch longer and thinner when worn. I wanted it to be pretty wide since it’s stockinette and the edges will curl a lot when worn.
