Notes

I’m not very good at lace work although I think I am getting better. This pattern doesn’t look difficult and it also benefits from having fairisle included.

I’m really looking forward to knitting this and trying out the British Breeds yarn.

16/02/20 OH DEAR! I have made a huge mistake. I!ve cast on the wrong amount of stitches for my size. Should have cast on 280 (M) and only cast on 240 (S) I don’t have any choice but to unravel it and start again.
At least I’m getting in a lot of practice Lace knitting.
Starting againfrom the beginning on 17th.
7/03/20 I’m back to where I was before having to unravel it because of a silly error.
Unfortunately I have to stop knitting for a few weeks as I have bursitis in my shoulders caused by knitting.
I will start again as soon as I’m pain free.

13th June. Finished at last.
