Notes

I saw someone else’s Ranunculus knit out of Anzula Cloud. It was so beautiful! I had to get some for myself.

2018.03.17

The yoke was finished quickly, but I’m taking a little break to finish up some other projects.

2018.03.21

I’m nearly done with the body, but I want to finish the sleeves first.
I’ve been enjoying the process and just taking my time,
In some of the reviews of this yarn, it was said that it’s splitty and full of knots. So far, I haven’t noticed that at all.

2018.03.22

I have this hopeless tangle right now so I had to stop knitting. It’s my own fault from knitting from both ends of the skein. I finally cut one end and now I need to untangle this mess.

2018.03.24

I finally worked up the nerve to try and untangle the mess I made. It took about 3 hours to untangle it all. I was very patient.
I finished one sleeve. I won’t have enough yarn for full length sleeves so I made them 3/4 length.

2018.03.25

This is the first time I used up just about every bit of yarn. I played yarn chicken, and I knit until there was about 3 inches left. I have 3/4 sleeves and it’s a cropped sweater, about 12 inches in length.
Of course, I do need to block it, so maybe it will grow.

2018.03.30

My daughter took the photos of me trying to pose. I think she did a good job as a photographer. It did grow just a little, but it is still a cropped sweater.
