Notes

11/8/11 - Through row 2 Rock Island chart

Omgosh, it took me 3 mos to finish the edging. o_O I definitely was not working very dedicatedly, though. Looking forward to the next portions.

7/18/12 - Apparently this is my “when I’m bored” project? I finally busted out the rest of the Rock Island chart in two days, and I’m finishing up the garter edge now. Getting from 200+ stitches down to 11 ain’t no thang, right?

8/6 - About TIME I finished this! Apparently the Rav Games were the kick-start I needed to get me moving. Weaving and blocking now.
