Notes

Adjusted number of rows and stitches in each row for bulky weight 100% suri alpaca yarn from B I Bar Ranch in Colorado Springs and L hook.

I agree with what Vashti writes in her newsletter: “I love that simply switching to Bosnian slip stitches contracts just enough to make perfect rims for these Luckyslip mitts, for example.” (Newsletter link: http://us2.campaign-archive1.com/?u=8d9b0b0df0b73f0fdcb7f...)

Added a few front loop only in the round (Bosnian) slip stitch rows to the thumb opening.

Blocking a swatch and previous experience with the Convertible Hat/Cowl shown on my Projects page were important to understanding how this yarn would behave with slip stitches. Yes, it is possible to make stretchy, resilient fabric with suri!
