Notes

01-27-2017

Not sizing down needle size, like I usually do, since I like the fabric on size 7* and I have a little more flexibility with yardage.

nothing is more irritating to me than a too-loose garter stitch

02-03-2017

halfway done! With one skein, I increased to a total of 94 stitches at the widest section.

Overall Thoughts
I LOVED this knit. It surprised me in so many ways:

  • How airy the blocked fabric is
  • How well-suited the yarn is to garter stitch
  • How quickly I knit this
  • How I never got bored, because it was my “mindless project” and I saw it for what it was
  • that fringe
  • How sizable the FO is for using only two skeins (200g) of worsted weight yarn
