Notes

I used 4 faded colours for this project and used around 50g of each colour.

Held with a strand of mohair and a strand of alpaca silk (less than 100g of each)

This was a fun project - simple shape but the eyelets and fading keep it interesting.

I followed the size 40” exactly and it is a great fit.
