Notes

Because my primary project - an epic cabled scarf - had become too unwieldy to take on my commute and because this project was portable and also free, and because I did not own any light-gray scarves or shawls, which had become an unexpected point of frustration in recent weeks - like, the dark-gray shawl wasn’t good enough? - and because I had cable exhaustion and scarf exhaustion, and I missed lace and need to bind off SOMETHING SOON. Oh, and because the Remix was in my stash. That’s why.

Quick and kinda perfect - I get compliments on this one every time I wear it, which is CONSTANTLY.

Added optional Chart D and knit a few extra rows of garter before binding off, no other mods.
