The instructions for the short rows and ruching were difficult to understand, but eventually I got it. Finished with 24” of yarn left. Yarn relaxed a bit more than I would have liked when soaked and blocked. I like the tonal quality of the dye though and it’s very soft. The color of the yarn I’ll call Saffron - reminds me of the beautiful color of our beloved Saffy dog - who we lost just days ago.
