Finished clue 1!
Lifeline in place moving to clue 2.
Switched colors A and B at section 3.

Finished clue 2!
Section 5 slowed me down but I’m super happy I tried the brioche.

11-17-2016

Finished clue 3!
I shortened section 8 by about 6 rows mainly because I was anxious to move to the final clue.
I love the idea of brioche for the last section so diving in.

Finished clue 4!
Bound off in color C. Need to weave in ends and block.

Calling it done! It is the most wonderful neck blanket I have ever felt. This was my first Stephen West KAL and it did not disappoint!

The ends were super easy to weave into the i-cords, Hooray for that :)

For now it is unblocked until I can find a large enough space for blocking.
