2/9/2019 started with single strand of Mercurio but seemed too thin; restarted using Mercurio doubled…seem to be right on the pattern gauge.
2/11/2019 starting third pattern repeat.
2/12/2019 finished 3rd pattern repeat — using 12g MC, 8 (16)g CC per pattern repeat — remember that CC is doubled!
Piece measure 12” wide x 12.75” long — unblocked.
2/19/2019 finished at 7 full repeats -- because I don’t have enough CC to complete another repeat.
