Notes

The club yarn is a lovely deep pine green!
I might suggest washing this dark color before using. I found it crocked a tiny bit while I was knitting, but it washed right off.
There are beads, and if you so desired, there are other places where more could be added.

Chart A
After the first 4 rows, I found keeping track of where I was in the chart made me knit slower so I would just read my knitting at the beginning of each RS row. Since the first stitch just alternated between kfb and k2tog, all I really needed was that there should be 9 stitches between the last 2 w&t. I would knit to the marker I had were the w&t should be, w&t, remove the marker, knit 3, pm, and knit to the marker placed in the same way at the other end. Purling or doing the texture stitch pattern as the side of the fabric called for.

Transition
The boundary between the short rows and the lace edge.

Chart B
Any repeat markers move on rows 9, 11, 19, 21, and 23.

Chart C
Repeat markers will move on rows 3, 5, 7, 9, and 11

Man are the rows getting long!

Chart D
Repeat markers will move on rows 5, 7, 9, 11, 13, 15, 17, 21, and 25.
Since there are basically 40 repeats in a row I marked the beginning of the repeat section, the end of repeat number 39 because number 40 is often slightly different and quarters of the row (Every 10 repeats) so that I had smaller goalposts and these long rows were less daunting.

I have found that I like to hang my cable needle on a necklace between cables on a cable row.

Beading is done on WS rows. Do Not Spill Your Beads if you are using the kit beads. I only had 20 beads left over.
