Notes

First time shawl-knitter. I started slow, the first ~50 rows took a long time. I did get the hang of it though, and now I knit much faster.

row 60: 63,4 grams left

02-01-2017

row 83: 30 grams

made a mistake in not knitting but instead perling the row before and after the eyelet rows. frogged back to row 81

03-01-2017

row 95: 12,6 grams left
I want to do one more eyelet row and then skip to the last part (skipping 2 eyelet rows)

04-01-2017

ended up playing yarn-chicken. Initially I wanted to knit up to row 101 and then continue with row 114 and the edging. I started running out of yarn, so I frogged 101 and 100 and started knitting 114 in place of 100. I ended with ~2 m of yarn left. I feel I messed up the edging a bit, I couldn’t seem to get the hang of it worried
I had trouble undoing some stitches due to the nature of the yarn and I also accidentally dropped a stitch somewhere during casting off. I tried to fix it.

130x35 unblocked

I still have to block it.
