CO 88 stitches onto a size 9 needle, change to size 7’s and start pattern. I was off a stitch at the end of row 7, couldn’t find what I did so frogged and started again. Was concerned the edge would be tight, used a size 10 to redo CO.

WOW! This has been in knitting jail for almost 3 1/2 years! Definitely time to figure out where I am and get to knitting it again. I’m pretty sure I ended on row 3 of the pattern, I’ll start from there!

Just not the pattern and yarn combination I’m looking for, will start again!
