Notes

Don’t be alarmed by the amount of yarn used.
Held several strands together thru out.

Love this design.
Don’t know why it is discontinued.

These yarns, US 11, CO 55, 42 r, three str tog:
eyelash yarn double and fingering carried along single.

Made a thin rectangle pillow insert.
Decorative buttons for the side closures.
Buttonholes aren’t needed because the buttons can be slipped thru the stitches as they are and remain secure.
Elected to stitch the tie with a regular yarn, double str with fingering double as well.
Made the tie 32” long.
