Notes

Each 2000m cake weighs 530g. The name of this Twister is Toni M10. The 4 colours that make up this cake, from lightest to darkest, are: pistachio, nymph, riviera and lagoon.

Etsy listing for this yarn:
https://www.etsy.com/au/listing/1789887639/twister-bobbel...?

I did not cut the yarn at Round 20 (I slip stitched to the corner 2ch space). Up to Round 30 measures 33cm x 33cm.

Each repeat should add roughly 8cm per side or add 16cm to the width. For example:

Repeat 1 size is 49cm x 49cm.

Repeat 2 size is 65cm x 65cm. Each round takes about an hour at this point.

Repeat 3 size is 81cm x 81cm. Rounds take between an hour and 1.25 hours by the end of this section. Blanket weighs 430g.

Repeat 4 size is 97cm x 97cm. Ran out of first cake, weighing 530g, at round 22 of this Repeat.

Repeat 5 size is 113cm x 113cm. Most rounds taking 1.5 to 2 hours to complete at this size. Have used about 900g of yarn so far.

Repeat 6 size is 129cm x 129cm. Ran out of second cake at round 24 of this repeat. Blanket now weighs 1060g.

Repeat 7 size is 145cm x 145cm. Each round takes roughly 2 hours to complete at this size.

Repeat 8. Ran out of the third cake, 3/4 of the way through round 19. Have ordered more yarn (800m) on 24/12/24 and waiting on arrival. Blanket now weighs 1590g (or 1.5kg) as at 05/01/25. Additional yarn arrived on 22/01/25, so back to it!

Repeat 8 continued. I ran out of yarn again, halfway through the final repeat at round 28. I have ordered more yarn (another 800m skein) on 26/01/25. Received tracking update that yarn was posted on 03/02/25, additional yarn received on 17/02/2025. Ordered 800m but received 1000m, weighing 270g. Finished Repeat 8 with 230g of yarn left over.

Repeat 8 size is 161cm x 161cm.
