Looks beautiful and complex, but very easy to work.
Once you get to the feather n fan you’ve got 4 plain rounds between each easy peasy round of ‘work’.
I suggest markers between reps - easy to inadvertently work an extra of something when the #s get larger - and you’re watching TV with half an eye.

I’m writing down my hours because I have a sort of bet with someone that I cant finish this before Xmas - without working “insane #’s of hours a day” solely on this project.

Done!!! 16.5 hours total of knitting.

Day 1 -12/4: thru round 47 plus 2 rounds of JFF chart.
Not bad for 4 hours or so - with interruptions. (closer to 3.5 true work )

Day 2 - 12/6: 1.5 hrs today(5.5 total). JFF rnds 2 -12 completed.

Day 3 Sat 12/7: 3.5 hrs (9 total)= thru rnd 33

Day 4 Sat 12/14: 2.5 hrs (11.5 total) thru rnd 40

Tues 12/17: .5 hr (12) = rnds 41 & 2

You know I’ve just had a thought: I’ll easily finish knitting by xmas, but where the heck am I going to block this monster?
On US 11 @ round 40, it’s already at 56” -unblocked I think Ill quit after round 45 then do Jared’s BO

12/18: 2.25 hr (14.25 total) rnds 42- 45 and 4 sections of BO
K 1, ^ k 2 tog, O, k 2 tog, turn, p 1, work 5 sts in next st -- to work 5 sts in 1 (k 1, p 1) twice in
the same st, then k in the same st once more. P 1, sl 1, turn, bind off 7 sts ^

This BO takes forever! It’s 25 ‘manipulations-equal-to-knits’ for each 4 sts of edge actually BO. Ugh. Lets see so at my round 45 end point… 51 sts times 8 segments, that’s 408 sts around, divide by 4 = 102, times 25… that’s 2550 sts worked for the edge. The full 55 rounds to 472 sts that would have been 2950 sts for the edge…

12/19 2 hrs (16.5 total) last of BO done, Finished knitting!

Now to find a place to block this giant kale leaf looking blob into an actual blanket.

12/20 blocking :) ….pinned it measures 64” (worked w US 11 and ended on round 45)
I honestly thought it would be bigger - it was laying to 57 unblocked and had a ton of stretch when dry.

Pinning was interesting. I naturally wanted to anchor pin the tops of widest opposing points first but then found when pinning the shorter areas it pulled them loose. Worked much better starting with anchor pins at opposing short points - N S E W. then anchoring the remaining four shorts (NE, SW, ..etc) and only then working on spreading the longer points outward.
