Notes

Mods:

Slipping 1st st of every row.
3 edge sts instead of 2.
Alternating 5 rows Eye of Partridge with slip st worked with yarn held in back and 5 rows Eye of Partridge with slip st worked with yarn held in front. It’s not indicated on the patten, but I’m slipping all stitches knitwise.

Blocked to 39” wide by 21” tall. Added a button & crocheted button loops to allow the wearer to hold it in place.
