Notes

10/1/10 I think I’m going to give this to my cousin Caroline, who just discovered she has breast cancer and, aside from that, has an appreciation for the handmade.

11/5/10 Finally done. Lots of false starts, recharted charts1, and had to finish with different handspun yarn2, but turned out quite nicely. Only did 3 repeats before starting border because I knew I was running out of yarn and that it was getting big enough.


  1. The pattern charts confused me and I actually started this project 3 times before finally understanding it. I also needed the charts to fit and be usable in my Knit Picks chart keeper, so I recharted them. There are also different charts available on the BadCats design blog that might be helpful to people.

  2. I’ve made a total guess as to how much of the alpaca I used to finish the border.
