Notes

07-21-2021

Using bare Gloss fingering and a Lady Dye Yarns mini-set along with 5 other small balls of yarn I had in stash to create this lovely piece of knitting!

I am using a new way to carry the MC up the sides of the CCs which involves knitting the 1st stitch of the CC RS rows with the MC and purling the last stitch of the CC WS rows with the MC. It frames everything nicely in my opinion, but I may decide to pick up and knit an afterthought icord border on the edges. Who knows..
