NOTES
This project is worked in two identical halves that are grafted together in the center using Kitchener stitch.

Project is worked flat; circular needle is used to facilitate color changes.

The yarn is used double throughout. Color B is always double-stranded with itself.

You may find it helpful to wind each skein of yarn into two equal balls.

This project uses almost all of color A2.
