Notes

Started as a Christmas prezzie, missed deadline and gave instead for April birthday. This pattern has been in my queue since early 2011. Mostly worked according to pattern (then, free), repeating chart A twice & chart B once, subbing Pumice for Firestone at row 9 of chart B, not because I was trying to be fancy but I was using up leftovers & running out of red yarn.

Also, worked 3-st garter border and substituted a PF&B for Y/Os on WS. US size 7 needle throughout, worked one extra WS row binding off on RS with Jeny’s SS B/O on #8.

Blocked the living daylights out of it to bring out points and remove very noticeable hump where paired yarn overs ended in stockinette portion & lace double decrease began. Giftee was genuinely delighted!
