DO OVER!! (1st few rows pics)
Using same cast on, tore back & now holding 2 strands per color, fabric is MUCH happier, even, fabric-y, instead of uneven loose blahh! Need to remember I have no business using lace weight yarn for anything other than LACE!!
STILL troubles, had to switch to wood needles, too slick on the nickel plated! Getting same gauge on next size up, 2.25mm(size1) wooden & they aren’t too slippery!

Tried blend of 1 Kenai with 1 Hawk for 1st accent section, tore that out, using both strands Kenai, now. Measured it, cut 26’4” for the section.

7.25” wide , looks like a perfect width to me! :)

Had quite a few set backs to get this far though, between life, my health & various equipment failures!
Pics show row 245.
1st pics I’ve been able to get that are worth posting, too, these do a decent job of showing the actual colors

3rd set pics @ 346 rows. Approx 1/2 way thru Chart 6.
Will narrow down set when I can get to it on my computer.

Row 390 completed is exactly 3’ long.

June 20, 2018

Chart 6 is almost exactly 5.5” at this gauge.
Customer hasn’t gotten a measurement back to me yet, so I’m going to assume 1 repeat(2 total) of Chart 6.
Scarf isn’t narrow in pic at the bend, just bent so I could take the pic where I was able to get to. :-s

August 31, 2018

Grrr, too many mistakes to ladder back, tearing out SUCKS! All the way back to starting last band of third color, row 818. Somehow I’ve twisted almost all the stitches of that whole row! :’-(
11 rows completed, pattern-wise. All of them were knit twice… >.<

September 1, 2018

Finished remainder of 3rd skein of Clarity, with only 4 rows to go!! >.<
Then spent the whole day picking out cast on & 1st 2 rows that were extra, not part of the pattern. I’ve known I’d need to do this since the third chart or so & yep! it’s just as tedious as I’d expected!!
11 more rows. (829)

Finally caked & weighed remaining Clarity skein, 52.5 grams.

Knitting is done!! Need to swatch a cpl bind off ideas, then apply to both ends, then fix errant stitch in geom section, then sort out moon bleeders situation & report! Oh. Yeah. Tuck alllllllll the mf’in ends in. Ugh.
