Notes

This yarn is some of the nicest single ply I have ever worked with!

As for the pattern…

Very easy to follow. I had a little bit of confusion when I came to the point where I was creating the panel. The instructions have you mark two different points where you set-up and where you divide. If you go onto auto-pilot then it’s very easy to get a little confused and to turn your work in the wrong place. Just make sure you that you read the ‘Hand’ section of the pattern very carefully.

The finished product is rock awesome. Unfortunately, they are a tad too big on me (and even larger on my hand model!) but I think once I block them they will be fine.

This was the first time I tried the magic-loop method as well. This project is PERFECT for anyone who wants to try this method. I don’t think I’ll be going back to double-points anytime soon.

Oh, and let me just say how in love with the buttons I am!
