Notes

2/7/16: Finally finished first clue and about a third of the second clue. Trying to catch up. Love the pattern!

02-11-16: I’ve discovered lifelines.

02-13-16: Finished clue 2, on to clue 3. This, by far, is the most challenging item I have ever knit. Sometimes I think I am tinking more than I am knitting.

2/18/16: Finished clue 3 and blocking now. Going MUCH better! I did 3 repeats of the zigzag and only tinked once! Lace is such a challenge for me and the markers and lifelines really helped because I could count between the markers and make sure I had things correct. I’m also very thankful I’ve never liked markers that don’t open and close.

2/23/16: DONE!!! Whew! I love it!
