Notes

Mods:
Increases made as yo, then knitting into the back of the yo on the next row. This increase method works well when needing to increase every row and prevents puckering.
Knitting in Stocking Stitch, with 9 garter ridges at edge to prevent curling.

Unblocked size aprox’ 102cm x 102cm (41”x41”)
Finished 6days after the boys were born, can I manage a second one?
I really enjoyed the project, but those last 3 stripes seemed to go on forever.

Using Silver and 7 rainbow colours.
From centre out;
3 stripes of Emperor (2,2,2,2,4,4)
3 stripes of Royal (4,4,6,6)
2 stripes of Petrol (6,6,8,8)
1 stripe of Green (10,10)
1 stripe of Sunshine (12,12)
1 stripe of Jaffa (14,14)
1 stripe of Lipstick (15,17) - 1rnd k, then k 1rnd and p 1rnd 8 times.
In silver k 1rnd, p 1rnd. Cast off knit wise loosely.
