Shawl for my daughter (w2: a person cozy). Summer of ‘14 Fires of Industry to commemorate her stint as a wildland firefighter. She was about a month on the Carlton Complex fire.

The world is changing…The old world will burn in the fires of industry. Forests will fall. A new order will rise.

And because I loved this pattern and yarn appearance from the moment I first laid eyes on it.

Skeins 106 and 114g and bought a third, 101g. Cast on from 106 skein, used 25g up to beginning of body main section. 7-8gr per main body 8-row repeat.

03/07: Officially re-instating my wtf rating on noro. One skein, one knot … not so bad. Tried to get end out from center of 114g skein and big yarn barf started (okay, BTDT); in a big, fat, not-spun, roving-like section it broke in two places. And I still hate the quaintly rustic thick/thin, completely-unspun/too-tightly-spun nature of the stuff. It’s another case of The Emperor is Wearing No Clothes. My spindle-spun first lesson stuff is better than this. They get NOMOR of my yarn budget, EVER. One star only for having the perfect colorway for this pattern.
03/08: Attached 101g skein because transitions worked out right.
03/13: Attached 114g skein to match color transitions. 12g left from 101g skein, beginning purpley gray to orange.
03/19: Bound off, needs tailed, blocked and photo’d. 8 grams left from 321 at start, 1027 yard.

Important note
Not included in the pattern, but I just got tired and it was plenty big, so I randomly stopped increases when I had a total of 56g remaining. Amazing luck. Finishing the segments in progress and working them to bind off plus the final segment used 48grams of that. I have, from start to finish, 40 segments. That’s an FYI for anyone coming along in the future.
