Notes

Using the green and brown for the garter stitch stripes, and the blue for the mesh sections.

N.B. Don’t try and carry the stripe colours up past the mesh!

08.03.2019

Finished! Absolutely lovely - or will be when I’ve sewn all the ends in. I did an extra plain knit row in blue after doing the last wedge, to help stabilise the cast-off, which I did purlwise as that (for me) seems to come out a bit looser than working it knitwise.

And I weighed the remaining yarn - brown 26.88g, green 31.30g, and blue 36.93g. Enough for another small shawl! (Well, I could have easily done at least one more stripe and wedge on this, but it’s plenty big enough already.)
