Notes

Yes, I used 5 yarns in this project. I cannibalized 1 or 2 skeins of Boutique Treasures Watercolors to get the specific shades of green for the centers. It was worth it!

The Unforgettable (Dragonfly) has a fabulous drape, but I a,m still uncomfortable with the extremes of thick and thin. This didn’t ruin my project though.

The Cascade Ultra Pima brought the whole piece together as far as stability and drape, and I used it again in the long sleeve version for the same stabilizing effect. I am thrilled with the performance of the Ultra Pima in both pieces.

The Silky Merino was a lucky find at Fancy Tiger sometime in the Fall 2014. I used that in the neckline only.
