Notes

Striped semicircular shawl. Basically, Pollinator without the lace sections.

For the last row of New Beginnings, instead of a garter ridge I knit one row of k2tog, yo. It ended up being about the same height as the garter ridges, so I didn’t need to knit a second row (good thing; the yarn’s almost gone).

Originally finished on the 17th, but after thinking about it a couple of days, I decided that the bindoff was too tight, so I undid it and bound off with a more elastic bindoff rather than the plain bindoff.
