Notes

Well this was ABSURDLY easy to knit up. I was hesitant about casting on 220 (!!!) stitches, but the stitch pattern is very-super-mad easy to knit, and I only ended up knitting about 22 or 24 rows, so I got it done in a week around all the other millions of things I’ve done.

The yarn was beautiful to work with, and the end result is beautifully squishy. I’m hesitant about blocking it as I don’t want to lose that delicious squishy.

The colour is most accurately recreated in the two outdoor photos with the lawn, as modelled by River.
