I’m using 11 instead of 10 1/2 needles (couldn’t find my 10 1/2 and gauge isn’t important but time was).

Easy pattern to get in the groove. Unlike instructions, I do NOT remove both fingers before putting the loops back on the left needle and knitting. I leave one finger (middle) in the loop in back which allows me to tighten the loops quickly.

Ended up using just 3 skeins--it is pretty heavy and bulky.
