Notes

01-06-2017

A new on-the-go project!
Provided that I finish the first edge, the central motif is so easy!
Knitting this yarn is like knitting gold and silver.
Am at row 40! A bit fed up but l went well forward.

02-06-2017

25g for the lace border, approx 20cm knit already. I am at the central panel now, no need to use the chart for a while.
When I will be done with the first skein, I will (as always) knit the second border first with the second skein, then join the yarn to continue.
That way I dont risk to play yarn chicken for the second border!

So far 52 cm long, 46 cm wide.

2nd border knit. 16cm so approx 80cm knit so far. Aiming for 150-160cm.

12-06-2017

Waiting for my shot. Although l am at home, since this is a waiting project, l knit it….
Update: and so did I!
I’ve knit to a good 94cm
If we add up the 16cm of the border, we are at 110/140cm now….

14-06-2017

Managed to knit to 110cm so 126cm with border.
