Notes

New batch made for 2024 Sale / Craft Show.
Some closed with regular twisted method, some closed with x-closure method.

My Sentro loves Heartland yarn. I quickly cranked 10 ear warmers and only had one dropped stitch.

As of yesterday morning, I had two of most of the colors cranked as one solid color.
Couple of exceptions: I haven’t made any yet with Grand Canyon and I only have one each of Black Canyon and Yosemite (orange).

PLAN: finish making two of each color, then I’ll move on to the half & half and/or scrappy.

FINISH: try Mary’s join method (kitchener stitch) below.
I love how Mary uses the kitchener stitch to join her headbands/hide the ugly join line. They look so much more professional.

UPDATE 9/26/24
I need to rewatch a tutorial on the actual kitchener stitch to see how it’s done because my stitches aren’t ending up quite right.
I did of course watch one of Mary’s: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=v9FpQ7dMsuc
