Notes

Whew, it’s about time! I bought this yarn 4 or 5 years ago in a shop right on the Canadian border past Calais, Maine. It was changing owners and getting rid of all of its yarn, which was mostly Briggs and Little. I originally intended to only do gray and yellow, but she only had one roll of yellow. So I compromised! I love how bright and cheery it is coming out.

I changed the ribbing to a a K1twist, P1 instea of K1, P1. I’ve been doing that a lot lately and like how decorative it looks.
