Notes

I love this yarn!

Ok, so I cast on and started with a garter tab, which I’m pleased with. I’ve also jumped on the bandwagon in regards to using the kfb increase instead of m1, as well as the dropped yarn over on the edge.

6/9: two days of serious knitting and I got to the beginning of the short rows. This is going quickly…I say that now, but here in a few rows I’m sure they will drag on like crazy :P

6/10: ugh, got too gung ho and didn’t do the increases right. Had to rip out to right before I added the blue. Boo.

6/22: bound off using JSSBO; I really like the edge it gave. I was hoping I wouldn’t have to block too much, but I will, so that might have to happen tomorrow. Even with the YO on the beginning of each row, the edge is a little tight. But it’s ok.
