Notes

11 de juliol: Després de desfer el començament i tornar a fer-lo, ja he pogut fer la secció 1 i vaig per la 2.

17 de juliol. Secció 3 en marxa.

19 de juliol. Se m’ha acabat la llana. La “meva” tensió no és la del patró: 23 punts en 10 cm en lloc dels 18 del patró. Per sort, encara quedava una madeixa del 69 a AYKL.

26 de juliol. Tercera secció acabada i primer entrebanc: a la primera passada de la vora de punt d’arròs em sobra un punt. Com que no trobo d’on ve l’error, li planto un k2tog i em quedo tan ample.

28 de juliol. Tancat. Només falta cosir els fils sobrers i bloquejar.

31 de juliol. Bloquejant. No estic gaire content del resultat, no hauria de ser tan ample. Espero que el segon em surti millor.

July 11th: After casting on and frogging it twice or three times, I’m already at Section 2.

July 17th. Section 3 already begun.

July 19th. Out of yarn. “My” gauge isn’t the one at the pattern: 23 sts = 4” instead of 18 sts = 4”. Luckily there was still a skein of 69 at my LYS.

July 26th. Section 3 finished. But at the first row of the seed stitch border I find an extra stitch… As I can’t find where I did the mistake, k2tog and continue knitting.

July 28th. Binded off. Just need to weave in the ends and block it.

July 31st. Blocking. I'm not satisfied with it, it's too wide. I hope the second will be more as it should have been.
