Notes
  • What a perfect pairing of yarn and pattern! My second one. Here’s the first.

  • This extremely popular and sometimes hard to find acrylic yarn turns out to be very soft, squishy, easy on the hand, and very “non-acrylic” feeling. Loving it. It comes and goes in availability at my local Michaels, and some colors vary in stock at Michaels.com.

  • Adding eyelet rows at color changes:

    K1 (yo, k2tog) for eyelet rows between color changes

  • When the color is changing on you mid-row, just keep going and do the eyelet in the next row. No worries!

  • Used the tiniest bit of a second skein for bind-off. This project is easily completed with one skein.

Delivered for Donation to Fund Raising Raffle for St. James Church Ministry of Consolation for Community Outreach Efforts (Food Pantry, etc.)
