Notes

I really need to either double the yarn and use size 13 needles. Tried to do it with this yarn and size 9, then 10, then 11 needles. The fabric was best with the 9s or 10s, but it was just too narrow. It was wider with the 11s, but the fabric was too loose. I have enough of this yarn to double it and make a scarf with 100 yards as opposed to the 120 of the pattern, so this will be around 60” long.

Also, everywhere it says to do skp, I’m doing an improved ssk, because I like how they look better.

October 1, 2015: I still need to wash, block and weave in ends, but it is otherwise complete.
