Notes

Knitrino MKAL with Barbara Kingsolver inspired by the book “Prodigal Summer.”

Latta Tar leftovers: swatch that I’m unraveling, partially used mini-skein, partially used full hank.

Used twisted German cast-on instead of longtail.

Decided to make fingerless mitts rather than mittens/gloves as revealed in Clue 5. After completing Clue 4 (upper hand), followed instructions for ribbing in Clue 1 for top of hand and bound off. For Clue 6 (thumb), knit 8 rounds plain and five rounds of ribbing before binding off.
