For the record, the charts are very, very bad. On row 34 of the Greta Garbo chart, stitch 14 needs to be a plan stitch, not a K2tog. On the Karukell chart, the return rows do not show the no-stitches, so on rows 7 and 15, there are only six stitches, not 8 in the main body, and there are also no-stitches in the border areas. If you use stitch markers, and I use them extensively, your stitch markers move on rows 8, 10, and 14 of the Karukell chart. Also, row one is a wrong side row, and so needs to be read from left to right, although the notation suggests the other way around.

Anybody want to do some bad math? This project involved, if I have counted correctly, 2,392 nupps. That, my friend, is a lot of nupps.

I tried something new, this time, with provisional stitches. I put my stitches onto needles (smaller size than the ones I was using) _before_ I removed the waste yarn. This worked _much_ better than previous strategies, and I only used a normal week’s worth of fucks, rather than my usual monthly allotment.

At any rate, this was a ton of fun, and Alpaca Cloud is just lovely, lovely yarn to work with.

Thank you falcz
