Notes

Making this for my sister, who is pregnant with her second kid.
I’m using a soft cotton yarn so that it will be easier for her to wash- I don’t want her to have to worry about hand washing something while she’s taking care of a newborn
5/26- 7 of 12 stripes of the pink done. This yarn is super soft and snuggly, but hard on the hands. I think the final product will be worth it though
6/3 - this yarn is so snuggly! I have 70 more rows to go on the three Colorado section. I love how these colors are striping
6/24: Only one and a half repeats left in the 3 color section. I am so close I can taste it!
6/30: only 10 more rows!
7/2: Finally finished! Just have to block it tomorrow. It’s going to be huge!
