Notes

Susanne (the Swiss Miss) came, saw this and conquered :-). She just must have this great little TOK bolero!
Yarn arrived 7 June 2012. Did about 5 complete cable repeats with size 9mm needles but it got too tight, so started again with size 10mm needles (US 15) and it feels just right.
Finished body 12 June, 2012. Started the frill, trying out crochet/knit mix for various edging stitches. The Seasalt Mohair mix with the Filatura di Crosa Turquoise made a nice fluffy border, ending with the Wild Stuff / Cool Stuff from Prism.
17 June, 2012: Finished the F&F Bolero for the Swiss Miss.
