Longtail cast on using both colors

Began Front Feature Chart

(Noticed only after a few rows that I’m not quite knitting this backward: I’m reading the MCA chart from the right, and the MCB chart from the left).

Completed thru Row 12

Worked thru Row 31 (halfway) of Front Feature chart

Just finished thru Row 39, same chart. Annoyingly I’ve found a mistake on one side of Rows 33 and 34. sweat_smileSigh

02-17-2024

I’ve finished the Front Feature chart! partying_facepartying_facepartying_facegrinheart

Really loving these colors together! As a bonus, I’ve included my notes for how I’m working the pattern (they may help someone else out there, too!).

I’m also going to fix my mistake from earlier when I’m done with some top stitching. wink
