Notes

Evolution continued through Welt 10 of collar. I then used the coordinate Pear to continue on. I could have easily worked a 5th skein for the evolution in the collar.

Since the base is an MCN, it gives a drapier fabric than the original but I loved how it flows.

Super popular with people at Rhinebeck. Even better? I got to meet Sandra and have my picture taken with her while wearing this sweater!

Oct 2 - Did 2 rounds at lunch. Late evening start after family dinner and long post office trip. Managed to complete half of welt 4 before going to bed early.

Oct 1 - got a late start due to trip to store for doggie kibble. Finished Welt 1 and most of welt 2. Left off after doing decreases for first section.

Sept. 30 - Cast on…twice. Tail wasn’t long enough. Made sure not to twist the join and knit through round 7. Discovered I twisted the join. Ripped back to round 3 and picked up stitches. Knit through round 6.
