Notes

A clever pattern but I think I was not concentrated enough and got some misconceptions that I had to rip back twice at the start. After that, it knit up really fast.

I am very happy with the result and will knit another one with a softer yarn.

It’s on my shoulders everyday ever since it’s been completed!


I really like the color of the yarn but it’s splitty and sheds a lot. Sometimes I had to wear a mask to keep myself from sneezing when knitting it!

But it behaves a lot better after blocking and it’s very warm.
