Project notes:

• very intriguing construction
• learned something new, Judy’s Magic cast-on https://youtu.be/gkyd3nq3Yn8
• after working in magic loop method for a while, I found it easier to work the stockinette body with two needles (same size) working halfway and then sliding off and switching to the other half with the other needle
• recommended, stitch markers are essential, in the beginning of this pattern
• lifted increases, generated a small hole, but it became quickly apparent, that they created a design element and added to the overall construction and look of the pattern
