Notes

My project for the UAE June 2010 KAL.
We cast on on the 18th of June, and the deadline is the 2nd of July.

I have been knitting this one entirely with Holst Supersoft. The yarn is great (especially because there are 90-something colors available!), but I was knitting it directly from the purchased skeins, which it turns out isn’t ideal for me - the spinning oil leftovers in the yarn are not my favorites! My hands started to itch, and if I scratched myself on the arm it itched even more. SO, next time I’m very much going to wash this yarn before knitting!

Apart from the yarn thing, this pattern is great. I am going to knit another at some point, I already have the yarn in mind for it..
