Notes

Made a few adjustments…

in lieu of the YO increases, i kfb for a less delicate look

that seemed to shrink the scarf a bit, so i did 4 repeats of color a, 2 of b, 2 of a, 2 of b, 3 of b, 2 of a, then the first two rows of the pattern in b and cast off.

i really like how it turned out, and i had exactly enough of the dreamland to finish….was pretty nervewracking on that cast off though!
