Notes

May 26, 2016 FINALLY got this one out of hibernation and finished the bastard. I ended up attaching straps, but I didn’t get a pic before I handed it off to the bestie. Don’t care. It’s still finished.

July 4, 2015 Finished the first skein of blue. I’m getting about six inches per skeins, so hopefully two more will be enough to make a good length. I guess I won’t find out until the bestie tries it on again.

June 29, 2015 Chevrons are coming along nicely. The bestie came over for a quick fitting check, and it’s gonna hit her perfectly. I’ve got the rest of this blue skein, a white skein, and then another blue skein to add and get a good length. There will be straps of some sort.

June 28, 2015 Started the dress yesterday and completely blew the increases and decreases. Lucky for me, my blown dress start is a great fit for my best friend, so now it’s for her. Gonna work some chevron stitch in there at her request.
