Notes

13/09/2013
This is great and since I switched to a 2-needle system I enjoy it even more (without stretching too much the fabric out)
I’m using 2 cables and divide the work in 2 parts. (first cable until the middle 5 yo + 5 more stitches and then I switch to the second needle).
It is so much easier to handle and in the same time a double check that I’m not out of count.

Finally made it up to row 48 - yeah
After starting on circular 3.5 … not sure about my colors … changing to another color combination … and again another one ;-) … coming back to my original choice but with 3.0 needles.
I like it so much better now and I’m able knitting the pattern with my eyes closed

I love Wollmeise for the bright and exceptional colors, that is why I’m only having flashy ones in my stash and they were not going that well together as I thought they will do.
So when I added color C to my pink/blue base I didn’t like it at all.
STASH DIVING ….
and voilà I changed completely my color scheme …
With only 1 Wollmeise and white/ecru + dark grey from my stash.
I started over last sunday and after a knitting marathon this week I almost finished clue 3.
Ok I definitely need a nap now ;-)
