Notes

my camera doesn’t capture the delicate yellows and greens in this yarn, no matter how i try!

this pattern is fun, and easily memorized. i may add a few pattern repeats here and there to please my eye.

i did some extensive algebra to figure out how to use every last scrap of my skeins. i managed many extra repeats, and lengthened each additional repeat by 4 rows.

mitered the icord BO instead of making a loop at the center point.

it’s HUGE, but so cuddly and soft, it will be great for winter.
