Panels 2, 3: CH40.
Row 1: HDC in both loops.

54 pattern repeats + foundation row = 58 inches (desired length).
50 pattern repeats + foundation row = 54 inches.

I used the foundation row approach and general technique from this YouTube video tutorial:

I’m using Russian join to connect/join skeins.

Yarn Notes:
This yarn worked up well, almost no splitting. Washed up incredibly well, no pilling or any other issues, and became amazingly soft (surprisingly so!) using SOAK Wash in washer (cold wash, low setting dryer). I like this acrylic yarn a lot.
