Notes

Berry yarn weighs 103 gms, blue 107 gms (36 gms remain of blue).
30 gms left of berry.

Modifications:

  • On the i-cord bindoff I do the ssk as slip as if to knit, second stitch slip as if to purl. Tucks the last stitch under nicely.
  • Started with size 4 but too loose. 80 sts = 16 1/2”
  • Changed to size 2.

80 sts = 13”

Used the One Step Provisional Cast-On

Colors are a bit more saturated than the in-process photos show.

Measurements before blocking:
Width 13” (26” circumference)
Length 15 3/4”

Measurements after blocking:
Width 12 1/2” (25” circumference)
Length 17”

If I knit this again I would probably make it shorter. Stephanie did 12” and that looks good. Although with this length you could bring it up over your head like a hood.
