Notes

  • January 2025 KAL Discussion here.

  • 1st skein went up to 84/83 stitches (167)

  • So much garter stitch to get this one underway!

  • Starting the patterned section. Taking a lot of time to get the hand of this “CDI” stitch (Central Double Increase). Not really loving this stitch along with lots of P3tog. I’m sure it takes some time for any rhythm.

  • Using markers for all of the pattern repeats. They have to move around on each row, but it helps when there are so many stitches.

  • Plan to knit at least ten shawls in 2025 (10in25) This is shawl #1
