Notes

7/4: blocked to 43”x17”.

6/5: Just needs blocking.

Glad I skipped those rows because if I hadn’t I wouldn’t have had enough yarn. Only had about 4.5 grams of yarn left.

Did not do the k2tog bind off. It was coming out tight for some reason and I didn’t like the edge it gave for this particular shawl. Did a really lose regular bind off with the help of a crochet hook for a nice drapey edge.

6/2: On rows 12-20 on chart D. I skipped 2 stockinette rows each on A, B, and C, but now I wish I hadn’t because I think I’m going to have a ton of yarn left and those extra 6 rows would have given me more length in the shawl. :-(

5/30: Hoping one skein is enough. Maybe I should be using a 5 for this.

Also is there a row missing between the set up rows and section A? The way it’s written, it’s like the right and wrong sides switch, so I’m confused…
