Notes

This shawl is the reason I learned Brioche stitch.

I want to do it in a spring greens against autumn ambers.

Time to print my pattern and wind my yarn!

2/15 - Test swatched in some inexpensive acrylic on a size 10needle (I think) to see how the stitches go. This actually seems a bit easier than the Rodekool, but perhaps that’s just the experience.

2/16 - Through the first repeat and most of the second repeat! This seems to be moving along… just need to stay focused!

2/18 - welp! I made a flub in a repeat and just had to frog back a bit. But I think I did ok with picking up and stringing a lifeline through after the fact… we’ll see when I get it back on the needles.

3/22 - I took a break from the project, but now I’m back and up to the last 5 rows to go!
