Notes

Holst Supersoft and Silk Mohair held together.
a) Holst Oxford and DROPS Kid-Silk White
b) Holst Bokhara and ITO Sensai Enji

Test start: pattern received Sept. 11, 2022
Construction understood. This will be a fun knit star-struck

Notes:
I somehow screwed up zany_face the increases in section 1 somewhere, because I had a stitch count in the middle of section 1 after a WS row that does not correspond to the increase logic. I suspect I forgot some kfb. Fixed this in the subsequent rows.

Section 1:
209 sts. / ~58 cm circumference during knitting / ~60-62 cm after BO / ~63-64 cm after washing
usage:
25,4 g Holst Garn Supersoft
8,1 g DROPS Kid-Silk
5,3 g ITO Sensai

Section 2:
usage:
75,2 g Holst Garn Supersoft
22,8 g DROPS Kid-Silk
14,9 g ITO Sensai (all used up) => ran out of Sensai for the last 13 red stripes and knitted them with Holst Supersoft only

Length at center ~76 cm / ~82 cm after washing
