Notes

I have no idea if it’s Kauni or Aade Lõng.
When I bought it it was without a name tag.

Taking this one with me on a short holiday by the sea ;-) Can’t wait to start.

And this is what my mood is going to be like :-)

13/08: Traffic jam was so terrible that I managed to make 6 stripes. We left home at 10 am and got there 6h (+1h for lunch) later - about 230km!

14/08: My boys are having a nap, and me? Two more stripes ready ;-)

15/08: And two more…

16/08: Decided on 11 stripes to get a nice rainbow spectrum from purple to purple. I manipulated with the amount of purple at the end and joined small purple leftovers from Summit Shawls.

17/08: Switching to gray sock yarn. Made 32 rows (16 Garter ridges).
