Notes

going to try to work on bias. add 1 st to CO. also thinner, to try to use only one skein.

CO 61. Tricky pattern to chart, esp with bias sts at ends. I worked out something but largely ending up fudging ends to stay in pattern and keep bias going. Need to work out 8 rows on chart I think. However, it is working and resulting fabric and shape is great.

4/26, frogged and started over after finally working out the repeat with biasing in chart. Fudging was not resulting in a clean diagonal. Cast on 49 this time for a slightly narrowed scarf vs wrap. Much straighter edges, and no more counting each row to make sure I kept things balanced. working back up fairly quickly. I love this yarn as a fabric, but it’s not so great to knit with.
