Notes

They are finished and they are lovely!!! The only thing needed now, is a good photo in good light.

This was my first time attempting intarsia and it went very well. The pattern was very clearly written.

I am really enjoying this knit after I changed the yarn!

The yarn states that it is DK weight, but it blooms very much when washed and is closer to a worsted weight.

Previous yarn choice:
Manos Lace Swatch = 12 sts and 17,5 rows / 5cm when n-plying the yarn.
I kept snagging when n-plying the yarn and had to frog several times, SO I decided to change yarns!
