Notes

I bought 2 skeins of this yarn and I started to really, really hate the colour. I made a Sheldon using it as the main colour and Polar Morn as the accent and it looked awful.

I was watching Criminal Minds and saw Avril was on MSN, and decided she would benefit from a kerchief, so next time I see her she gets it!

I was mindlessly browsing through patterns and came across this and I thought it looked pretty simple so I gave it a whirl, I wasnt a fan of the cast on - messed it up once but after I got a couple of rows in I was rollin’.
I was using cheap plastic needles with very blunt tips, so the k2tog for the second part got a little tight sometimes but I muscled through. I have vowed to only buy good needles from now on though.

I’ve aggressively blockedabout twice the size, I didnt get exact measurements but I’ve got a standard stick of deodorant on top of it for comparison.
