Notes

Love this yarn and what one Raveler did with it - so of course I had to copy, but it is so perfect for a side-to-side knit.

Normally I would knit this on a smaller needle, but I’m going for the lacy look.

1-8-11 --- finished this morning, but don’t like the ending. Going to rip and repeat.

Definitely a few things I learned already. If you’re doing this with the color changes, you need to end the first ball slightly beyond the middle to give yourself enough without worrying about having enough yarn at the end.

There is a middle section in this pattern to transition from the increasing to the decreasing, so get past that section and they you won’t have to worry.

So - I frogged back and at 20 repeats - 71 stitches - I start the last change with the first ball that and then started the decreases. Hopefully I will have enough at the end now.
