April/May 2024 KAL
Plan to try and use my Blessed Be advent leftovers, running from one color to the next without worrying about where the changes are. It’s a solid fade, so I think it will work. And I have leftover of the full skein that came with it, should be just enough to pull this off.

Changed to the pearls color at the beginning of the third pass of row 69 in the eleventh section. Edging is just 6 additional rows in the pattern order, so I’ll knit 69, 70, 71, 72, 73, and 74 then start the picot bind off.
Off the needles! Used every inch of the Advent leftovers I had, but only 18g of the coordinating skein for the pearls and the edging.
