Notes

Rose-grey and fawn stripes. Border in cream. I used the suggestion of k3 tog tbl q10 st to maximize yardage and minimize a bit of the knitting of the border. (See second photo.) This technique does not affect the drape.

Blocked: 18” (46 cm) at center x 73” (185 cm) wingspan
Unblocked: 16” at center

Twisted edge tutorial

Total = 509 yd/ 465 m of yarn used.
