Notes

Entirely inspired to use this yarn for this top by niv3ous. I am starting with the blue at the bottom ramping to red at the top.

06-11-2023

I got to the strap, knew I wouldn’t have enough yarn to finish them, tried it on, and decided it was too wide anyway. So I tinked back to the row before the first increase and knit another 12 rows before increasing. I will do only 2 increases instead of 4 so it won’t be too wide at the bust.

06-12-2023

This time I finished one strap and had a ton of yarn leftover, so I did some quick calculations to determine how many more rows I could add for a longer body, tinked back to right before the back ribbing, and now I think I can use just about every inch of this skein!
