Notes

Kristen Hansen designed this lovely pattern for this yarn. She has numerous stunning designs. Amazing shawls.
I hope a more than just a few people see this project page for her sake!

Pattern directions are very clear. Easy to execute. This is the second time I worked this pattern and it moved much more quickly with patt underhand.

This alpaca / tencel yarn is magical. Amazing color, texture and drape. Sadly, Fiesta Yarns is no longer in business. One can procure this unique yarn from other ravelers. If you’re thinking about it, sight unseen, go ahead. You’ll be delighted with any project you make with it.

One needs to keep track of what row one is on because the stitches change direction frequently.

These interlocking hearts are really pretty.

Down a needle size for guage, which is typical for me. Enough yarn to work the 28 r patt 11 1/2 x vs 13 x, as written. It’s fine to end after row 14 or 16 if you want to make the most of your skein.

Errata #1:
Stitch Key
pattern states:
ssk = slip, slip, knit

Correction:
ssk2tog = slip, slip, knit 2 tog.

Errata #2:
Row 6:
end of row states:
yo, ss, k4
Correction:
yo, ssk, k4

This pattern is no longer available because Fiesta Yarns is closed. Anyone who wants this pattern can contact me and I’ll send you a copy.
