Notes

50g (approx.450) size 6/0 of Ivory Ceylon glass beads from Chromabeader on eBay

04:01:15 bought another ball, didn’t want to run out.

08:01:15 2nd body repeat completed ….do I do a 3rd ? Probly as the people this might be for are on the large side….

11:01:15 3rd body repeat completed

15:01:15: I’ve rated this as a medium, for some reason I kept making silly mistakes although the charts are pretty clear, but ….generally I think it may be because how the sets of stitches are grouped wasn’t natural for me …

If using stitchmarkers, there are a couple of charts where they need to be moved:
transition chart 2: move by 1 st
border chart: row 1: stitchmarker moves by 6 st
row 11 stitchmarker moves by 1 st

I used tons more beads than the pattern asks for - I think it was approx.942 …

16:01:15 washed & blocked

wingspan 60’’
depth 27’’
