Notes

Pre-blocking: 26.5” x 13.5”
Post-blocking: 42” x 21”

Final notes: This was a relatively quick knit, and rather easy once I got used to the yarn and the needles. I had some spots where yarn overs fell off the needles, which was frustrating, but total user error. I had fun, and I looove this yarn in the end!

06/10/10 - All done! I found the bind off to be hard to do on metal needles.. things kept slipping. Bamboo would have been nice. I dig the edge though!

It’s almost 1 am right now, so later today, I shall soak and block this baby, and get some more photos up. Zzz…

06/09/10 - Just finished Chart 1. This sucker is getting heavy! My Geodesic Cardigan feels much lighter hehe.

06/05/10 - I had trouble working out the setup rows for some reason, but then something clicked in my head and I got it squared away.

This yarn feels strange to work with, but I highly suspect it’s because I’ve been knitting with lace weight lately. The give on this isn’t quite the same.
