Notes

  • My pattern path was A-B-C-E-E-D2-D2-E(2 rows)-Bindoff Prep-Bindoff
  • I used 15 stitch double nupps until chart D, then switched to 13, to conserve yarn
  • I used a knitted picot bindoff
  • And I had a lot of fun

Early notes, getting ready!
And I changed it all up - I’m still using the green skein, but am going from dark to light. And will be using the Miyuki 458: Metallic Brown Iris 4mm cube. They may say they’re brown, but with the shiny iris they present more as olive and violets. By the time I get to the light end of the skein, these beads will have carried the charcoal through and will be dramatic and (I hope) stunning. :)
