Notes

My first project that was on a tiny scale. :) I LOVE the idea of a project taking 2 hours start to finish! Quick and easy!

I did this in the round using magic loop instead of DPN’s and I BO with a size 4 needle.

I’m a little unhappy with the Sig’nit. The box says to put it on the yarn from top to bottom but the holes in the Fleur de Lis are from side to side. Therefore, had I done that, it would have been sideways. I ended up stringing it on the yarn at the beginning and just kept moving it.

This pattern is knitted top down, which meant it was a little confusing trying to figure how exactly how to put the Sig’nit on. Luckily, it didn’t end up upside down since that is the last row of stitches!

I’ll be making these as gifts for friends and keep a few on hand for when I’m bringing a bottle of wine to a friend’s house.
