Notes

This was such a fun pattern to do! I almost got away with just using 1 skein, but ran out less than 2” from the BO. Sigh, such as life. It only took me 10 days to finish it. It goes by surprisingly quick.

One thing to mention for those of you that don’t know, acrylic isn’t the best yarn to use for this project if you want good blocking results. This is the first time I’ve tried it so it was new for me. I didn’t know whether or not my friend I made this for was alergic to wool or alpaca so my options were limited. You can see from my pictures that I shaped it while blocking with large scallopes, then 24 hours later they settled into faint waves.
