The voice activation feature in Row Counter app is perfect for this long ruffle. I am loving this yarn, no repeated pattern - each skein is different and the colors are gorgeous….I do my best in matching up the ends so it flows well.

This has to be the easiest pick-up and knit ever…just shoot for the holes in-between the bumps on the side of the ruffle caused by the Moss Stitch. 341 stitches pick up - easy peasy.

This is going to be a very colorful jacket, lol

Knitting is complete, next up sewing the sleeves and then setting them in. And then blocking a 50” circle, lol.

The center does pucker at the moment, whaddya gonna do? Hats are the same. So I’ll see what happens with a wet block since it is 53% wool…and if that doesn’t calm down the center then I might steam it to kill the acrylic and flatten it that way.

It called for 15 skeins…I used 12 so a hat? A scarf?
