Restarted today.

Starting row 197 Chart H, 10 rows to go.

I really hope I don’t play yarn chicken. When I bought this yarn, I had the materials page in hand and went to my LYS where the owner and I were friendly. I do recall she assured me this would be enough to finish this.

I’m already plotting what I’ll use to finish it if I do run out. I’ll end with a grey that turned red. What I end up doing will all depend on where it lands.

Off my needles. Such a relief, no where near playing yarn chicken
