Notes

Test thread

12-25-2017

Actual weight of yarn without paper band
24g Drizzle
48g Whisper

12-26-2017

Repeat 1 Used 2g Drizzle and 1g Whisper
Repeat 2 used 3g Drizzle and 5g Whisper
Repeat 3 used 7g Drizzle and 8g Whisper
Repeat 4 used 8g Drizzle and 11g Whisper
Last repeat (ending row 5) and border used 3g Drizzle and 18g Whisper

I hadn’t crocheted in a while, and the G hook felt over large with this yarn when I started. However after 2 repeats, I think I could have comfortably gone up to an H hook and still been happy with the fabric. The Drizzle is slightly more firm than I prefer for my shawls.
