Notes

July 7, 2018

When you have enough of the pattern’s recommended yarn, casting on makes perfect sense. I made the first nupp to see how it looked. Due to the 42g I have, I decided against it while keeping the beads.

July 10, 2018

After 2 repeats of the Main chart, I have 39g left -- 26.22 yards used.

Turned in for July 2018 History of Magic partial homework.

October 1st, 2018

I realized that wedding for which this shawl is being made is on the 5th. I am not going to make the deadline, but I hope the bride enjoys her gift.

October 8, 2018

Two more body repeats, then the edging and picot bindoff.

October 11, 2018

9.5 repeats done of Chart B leave 11g left of the Fine Lace.

October 12, 2018

10 body chart repeats leave 7.7g left.

October 15, 2018

I decided to finish all but the last row in the edging chart in the Fine Lace, even though the 0.3g left would have covered it. I used .25g of the 7.5g of Findley Dappled for the last row.
