Note: When working the garter ridges of color B, be sure to hold your yarn to the back of the work when slipping the stitches of color A. This is mentioned in the pattern, but I forgot the first and second time I started this project

A - Mushroom; B - Denim; C - Mink Brown

11.16.2012 - Casting on today! I’m knitting from my stash on this project, which makes me feel good. I need to get my stash WAY down before the 2013 festivals start. As I start this project, I have 57 stashed yarns. I’d like to reduce that by 50% by February, but we will see…

11.17.2012 - I am almost finished with section two. At this pace may be finished by Thanksgiving!

11.21.2012 - I may have spoken too soon… I just finished the first (of 12) border repeats. This won’t be done by Thanksgiving, that much I know.

11.25.2012 - 2 border repeats finished.

11.27.2012 - 6 border repeats finished.

11.28.2012 - Bound off with a US 10 needle. I’m done! Once it’s dry, I’ll be able to wear it.
