Notes

This yarn looked great on the KP website but when it arrived… Ehhh. Good thing Anna has a thing for oddly colored things ;)

So far this pattern is really bringing out the best of this yarn!

Expletive! I somehow managed to add FIVE stitches to one of these feathers and had to creatively decrease them. So what will probably end up being the center feather is going to stick out juuuust a little more than all the others. Doh.

Yes, I realize I can rip back but I would rather. Not.

I decided that with about a tenth of the skein left I was done. Made 23 feathers (shoulda done 24… eh). Debating cleaning up the other edge with a border of some kind.
