Notes

Pic of Paris at night from Yuppee. i searched for the right colors and found Paris Night and Plomo. Thinking about a third color, I saw this picture and decided to search for something colorful yet not too vivid.
After finishing the Geysir I called it Geysir à la Monet. ;) The Indieceta reminds me of his waterlilies.

Finally casted on again. This time I used Paris Night as color A and again Plomo as color B. now I like it much more than the weaker contrast between Plomo and Indieceta.

Frogged after second repeat of section 2, because too loose. :(

23/12/2012
Started again with needles size 4.5mm in place of 5.5mm. Now it’s perfect. :)
