Notes

Day 1:

  • co tonight
  • mica will be primary color, with daffodil accent

Day 3:

  • marathon knitting here, but anticipate finishing tomorrow (4 days total).
  • anticipate total time will be 10 hours, while watching tv and a decent amount of other distractions
  • very good amount of fabric for yardage.
  • Repeated full 4 row pattern 14.5 times and still have a few more rounds to go before I kill the primary color skein.
  • Averaging about 3.5 yards/1 round of primary skein, and I think I’m using about half of that for accent color rounds.
  • Saving 22 yards for final edging ( no mods from pattern).
  • more accent color showing than I thought, but I like it

Day 4: finished on the train

  • Ended up doing 30 rows of accent color, so 15 pattern repeats total.
  • Did not kill the primary color skein, so I’m going to make a matching headband.
  • Not blocking (sorry Chrissy, but ain’t no one got time for that)
