Notes

Stashbuster using grays, purples, and teals. I used only Vanna’s Choice and I Love This Yarn from my stash bins. As it is getting bigger, DD#1 decided she likes it, it matches her room and new comforter she has on order, and hurry and finish it, I want that one.

There’s no greater compliment than when your kid, who never really like anything enough to want it for herself, lays claim to something in progress.

The moss stitch, also known as linen stitch, works up quite quickly. Once I’ve done about a foot or so, I stop and weave in ends. I’ll be very glad later on that I did that!

Basically it’s the same pattern throughout, with grays separating the purples from the teals, mostly, though I’m trying to randomize it as much as possible within the color blocks, so there’s no exact system or pattern to the stripes.

Pictures taken with iPhone 6 under an Ottlite really do wash out. I’ll take proper pictures with the real camera in natural light when it’s finished.
