Notes

The yarn was received from an anonymous person as part of the Greater Milwaukee Knitting Guild’s 2023-2024 Brown Bag Exchange program. I’m to knit something for this person (#19) while someone else is working with the yarn that I put into Brown Bag #11 to make something for me.

Had to stop two rows short due to lack of yarn. Finished with two inches left after a little creative decreasing at the last dozen bind off stitches. The last hundred yards contained two knots that had to be removed and then the ends spliced. I would recommend using 260+ yards of worsted weight yarn to make this. It would have been more attractive if the last sixteen rows were not designed as being worked on a base of Garter Stitch. I would consider making the non-curling edge of lace being worked on a ribbing base with better flow from the pattern above. The eleven stitch repeats should continue to be started and ended with purl stitches. I would suggest that the stitches adjacent to the decreases should also be purl. The non-pattern rows should continue to be worked as they appear.
