Notes

Light Green: 52g (Start through Chart 4, Row 2)
Gradient: 78g (Chart 4, Row 3 through Chart 5, Row 11)
Purple: 41g (Chart 5, Row 12 through bind off)

Dimensions:
80” neck edge
32” depth
212” hem edge

3.5mm ChiaGoo Spins. Switched to Inox on Chart 2, Row 12 (when I ripped it back) because the yarn overs were getting caught at the cable joins of the ChiaGoos.

7 repeats (8 fans)

6/0 seed transparent beads (282 beads)
Lavender
Reorder 641SB
Don’t like the bead choice. Too light. Should have used the darker purple.

I think I might be doing the “Right Twist” incorrectly. I watched two videos on YouTube and one had you going through both stitches first, then the second (closest to the needle tip). Another had you just knit the first stitch from the top, then the second stitch. Both of those looked like a cable. When I did mine, I put the needle through the first and picked the yarn up from behind (underneath), pulled it up and then knit the second stitch. Mine makes angled lines. It still looks okay, though, so I’m not worried about it. Just making the note here for reference.

52g (496 yards) used from start to Chart 4, Row 3.
73g (690 yards) through Chart 4, Row 20.
92g (868 yards) through Chart 4, Row 30.
111g (1,054 yards) through Chart 4, Row 40.
140g (1,325 yards) through Chart 5, Row 16.
155g (1,475 yards) through Chart 5, Row 24.
171g (1,628yards) through bind off.

I like that MythMouse pointed out that there would be a stitch imbalance on the fragment section of Chart 4, Row 15: Here is my own change: yo, k1, yo, k2, yo, kfb, yo, k2, yo, k1, yo.

Explanation of Chart 5, Row 19: K3 (edge stitches), k4, work section between blue lines, work cable (marker should be in front of cable). Continue working cable/blue section until the last seven sts. Knit 4, k3 (edge stitches).

Approximately 8” for each bind off loop. 21 loops in each section. 1,344”/112 feet total.
