Notes

How are you supposed to get 20sts/10cm with a sport weight yarn using 3.75mm? I have some Lorna’s Laces, it may be a cut above the average yarn but it sure as hell is not magic. I got gauge with 5mm needles with sport weight. That was silly so I’m on DK using 4.5mm. I feel slightly more sensible.

Didn’t do yo, did right/left leaning increases.

Also did a modified version of tubular bind off. More information (or blabberings depending on your view) here.
