Notes

Finished size: 37.5” wide x 36” long.

204 rows.

6 days to knit.

“Sand” was done in Antique White.
“Turtles” was done in Pastel Green.
“Waves” was done in Pastel Blue.

Bound off in pattern (seed stitch) on size 8 needles. At first, I tried a stretchy bind-off, but that came out way to stretchy. So I took that out and re-did it with a regular bind-off in pattern with one size bigger needles.
