Notes

Mods

  1. garter st for 3 rows after cast on

  2. did 2 repeats as per pattern, piece measured 2 3/4W x 4L“. I have 350 yards and want this to get wider faster. So am doing increases/decreases on rows 3, 9, 15, 21. new piece measured 3 1/4w x 4L”

  3. trying out a new edge stitch (both sides). I like it a lot.

Nine repeats = 18 gr (32.1g left on ball). scarf is 18L x 7.5W. Will start transition section now.

transition section #1 28.1g = 3g, #2 24.5 =3.6g #3 21.2 =3.3g

11-03-2023 on the downside now

I really love this.

01-17-2024 Illimani sea green

total of 73 gr. 23g made the first 5 sections.

I need to save 38g for the downside.

used 7 g for 26 rows.

39, 33.7 = 5.3 full section no decr, 28.2 = 5.5.

5 inc sections, 4 plain sections, 5 decr sections
