Notes

Trying this in a fingering weight to use up this yarn. It’s not a great yarn for socks but will make a really nice scarf!

I love the look of the pattern stitch and the k1b makes that line of stitches really pop! It’s great Olympic watching knitting as it’s interesting but doesn’t take that much thought:-)

I cast on 50 stitches for this one. 7 border stitches , 35 +1 for the middle and 7 border stitches.

I am working a 2 stitch I-cord on the edge this time because the 3 stitch I-cord looked too heavy.
