Notes

Still on a mission to use up the stash.

  • CO 80 sts with 2 strands of Kroy sock yarn held double (to approximate worsted-aran weight)
  • make k2-p2 ribbing
  • with white yarn, increase to 90 sts (k10-m1 around)
  • knit 1 round of white to make a snowy field
  • make chart 6 times around

I placed the snowflakes at random on the rounds above the trees, with progressively fewer flakes toward the decrease rounds, and no snowflakes in the decrease rounds themselves.

Decreased the regular way in 9 sections, i.e. k8-k2tog around, k7-k2tog around, etc. Tie off at 18 sts.
