Notes

My Noro created really subtle color changes. It’s much more noticeable in natural light, but since it’s been raining for several days straight, I can’t get a good photo.

Have to pick my yarn still!!! I can’t decide!

5/16 - Finished the ribbing.

5/17 - 2 chart repeats done. Not super crazy about my yarn choice, but it will be cute. I think I’ll probably add it to my gift pile for Christmas.

5/18 - Frogged. It was WAY too small.

Considering switching to worsted so I can use some Silk Garden in the stash. I wasn’t loving my yarn choice for the contrast.

5/19 - Using Noro & WotA. CO 90 sts.
- Hat is really tight with the 90 sts on this size needle. On the next, I will CO 100 or 110. Depends on how this one blocks out.

Did 7 repeats of chart 1.
