Notes

Really like the way this pattern is knitting up.

Noticed last night that the pattern wasn’t centered well. I needed 2 purl stitches flanking the left side of each front. Dropped those two stitches the whole way down and purled them back up. Took a while, but I got it done and it looks better.

Finished! Very pleased. This yarn was originally sold in 50 gm skeins, which is what I bought for these years ago. It is obvious that even though they are the same dyelot, one skein had more black than the other. I love Simple Skyp for a multi colored yarn. May be my new go to for non-striping multi yarn.

Yarn purchased years ago at Knitting Sisters in Williamsburg, VA. Visited the shop for the last time last month, just a couple of weeks before it closed.
