Super easy fast knit!

I like a wider neck so only did 2 rows of neck edging and probably should have gone down a couple needle sizes for it but will see what blocking does.

Tricky bits:
at row 9 when it says repeat rows 7 and 8 what she really means I think is to continue in pattern (for me I think it was all knit that row) but to do similar increases and cast ons as seen in row 7 and 8

also it’s a little confusing for me when she says the neck additions will be at each edge. The cast ons for the neck additions will always be the end of rows.

After that smooooth sailing with a VERY memorable pattern (even for those of us suffering menopausal …oh what is that word… when you cant remember anything…uh)

Found a charming yarn store in a grouping of historic log cabins in “Gardener Village” Kamille’s is in a rare two story log cabin that was built about 150 years ago. Such friendly staff. A group of ladies knitting in the corner were obviously having a fantastic time. Such a great feel and interesting yarns I haven’t seen before.

HAD to cast on Thea’s new bulky pattern as an antidote to all the tedious false starts I’ve had recently.

Yarn is not red as the photos— more raspberry sorbet
