Notes

  • Even with a US3, I won’t have enough yarn to do clue 5. At the end of clue 4, I had already used 57%. So, I’m doing the very abbreviated clue 5 (two rows). Many thanks to Nim for making this possible in the design!
  • I bound off on row 200. I added a three stitch beaded picot in the middle of the double YOs, and a stretchy bindoff for all the other stitches.
  • Beads are Toho 6-779F Salmon Lined Crystal Rainbow Matte

Try two! I’m beginning again - I have this fabulous Coral to Natural to Navy gradient and some wonderful beads to compliment it. Plus, adapting to change is, well, good!

Why? While I had high hopes for the gradient I selected for my first attempt, the yarn itself didn’t do justice to the pattern. I haven’t frogged it yet, because I’m still in love with the combo, but I think it will be better suited to a pattern that stripes a gradient with a solid or another gradient. Oh well!
