Notes

I’m not sure about the Pearlescent. I think it’s too grey/brown. I may have to frog it and get some straight cream/off white.

Switched to the Knit Picks Bare and I’m much happier with how it looks.

This pattern really doesn’t take this long to knit. I’m just working on it very intermittently.

1 May -just need to finish ends and block. Pictures up soon.
