Notes

C1 - Salt & Pepper DK
C2 - Green worsted
C3 - Salt & Pepper Aran

While I tend to be a loose knitter, Petra’s pattern almost always require me to up a needle size or two.

Fun, fast and relaxing knit so far, I just finished the body of the shawl and started part 2, the ribbing with C2 colorway. Knit thru the first 3 rows (pattern in missing a repeat of rows 1 & 2), I ran out of yarn around 30 stitches into row 4. cry I also need this yarn for the BO. Decided to tink back to the end of row 3; slip work to the other end of the needle and added C3, worked part 3 for 4rows. Now I’m out of both colorways C2 and C3. I’m going to see if I have any yarn the same color green as C2 and BO with the new yarn and C1. No luck with the spring green, opted for Simply Soft in Black with the Salt and Pepper (C1) colorway, I love heart it! BO using a suspended BO with a size 15 needle.
