Notes

Shop Model using Trendsetter’s new gradient yarn.

Got to the first color change a few rows after the 5th row of beads. (4th repeat of chart B)

Got to the second color change after the 6th repeat 185.4 g left (including box).

Got to the third color change halfway after the 8th repeat. 170g left (including box).

Got to the fourth color change a few rows after the 10th repeat. 152.5 g left (including box).

Got to the fifth color change a few rows after the 11th repeat. 135.0 g left (including box).

Got to the seventh color change a few rows after the 13.5th repeat. 100.3 g left (including box).

Got to the last color during my flight from LAX to ORD. Didn’t have my scale in my carry on.

72.4 g (including box) after the last row of beads. During the last color, I realized the box slides open. 5.8 g left (without box). 16 beads in the last beaded row. (15 repeats of chart B).

5.0 g left after one return row.

1.9 g left before bind off. Binding off on a wrong side row a few rows shy of a full repeat. 0.3 g left after bind off.

55 x 94” before blocking.
47 x 100” after blocking.

Blocking - I soaked the shawl. Pressed out the excess water, then spun it to remove even more water. Then I hung it outside to dry. Clothes pins on every other Round section of the bound off edge. Then along the side near the small rounds to spread out the lace.

Miyuki size 5 triangle beads.
Lt grey color-lined white. #TR1841

This yarn has lovely colors, and feels wonderful, but the knots are hard to hide.
