Notes

Will make bigger than the pattern by making each section 1” longer, then repeating the last 2 rows before the garter edging until I have used enough yarn.

7/10: Just worked the last set of increases. Ended up only working about a half inch extra per section. Worked first set of increases when there were 25 sts outside the last set of markers, including the garter st section. Worked the second set of increases with 29 sts. Working M1R as ktbl, working M1L through the front leg. Not doing any of the alterations some have done with edge increases and center sts, etc. Pretty easy knitting. Can’t wait to get it finished and off the needles to see how the increases affect the fabric!

7/219: Have 2 grams of yarn left after binding off. I probably could have worked another row, but I didn’t know how much the bind off would take. Rather be safe than sorry! Ended up doing more rows of garter than the pattern called for, because my scale isn’t as accurate with smaller weights (obviously). Will measure then give it a good block and measure again. Looks scrumptious!
