Notes

8.2.11
I’m enjoying this yarn so much! The colors are so pure: red, green, blue, orange, yellow gumdrops amid the gingerbread brown. Since I’m making the large size, I’m still in the garter-stitch section, but the yarn makes it less boring than it might otherwise have been.

Having some trouble with the centered-double-decrease…

5.1.12
Finally, finally bound off last night. A million stitches. The only disappointment is that the yarn-overs for the body of the shawl seem too large - if I were to make this again, I’d use smaller needles - but I think blocking will make the holes less … obtrusive. I used all but about 30 yards of the third skein.
