Notes

Stash busting garter stitch long “scarf” rows

March 30: All columns sewn up! Finishing edges!

March 16: All columns finished!

Jan 25: 75% done! 12 of 16 rows knitted and rolled waiting to be sewn together.

Dec 13: 50%! Its all downhill from here baby!

Oct 26: column4 is complete. I have been slacking off on the knitting but the “doubling up” of the green was worth it. The millends tan is scratchy but keeps shape. Tomorrow’s expedition will be to find more Phentex big ball in French Blue.

Oct5: working on column2, thank goodness we picked up some pure white yarn, the aran was wayyy too dark to make the spots pop. RHSS is not as forgiving as Bernat SV, either that or I need to switch hand lotions during this project. Something feels skiffy with my calluses.
