Notes

Pattern # 15 from The Complete Book of Crochet Stitch Designs. I am still struggling with the language in the book and the diagrams. The diagrams don’t seem to have accurate numbers (as in a chain 5 will be shown with 3 chain symbols) and the language of the instruction is like crochet shorthand. I should probably have a ball of scrap handy to practice first, as some yarn (such as the yarn for this project) does not take kindly to ripping out.

04/03/2013 - Finished today on lunch. This was a really fast stitch and it seemed like I could crank out inches of length in a sitting.

I did a spit join for the two balls of yarn. Still wonder if that was smart, but it seemed pretty strong and I love not having a knot.

The yarn was really soft, and does NOT take kindly to ripping out.

Love the size. It’s perfect.
