Notes

Use Létt-lopi order from Carreg Yarns. 12 skeins royal blue, 2 skeins white, 1 skein spring green.

Used 2.5mm hook to crochet edge but I still feel it’s a little wavy. Next time I’d probably use Kate Davies’ method of crocheting with a finer yarn and then covering the edge with a knit band. (She calls this a “steek sandwich”).

I lined the steek with my first inkle.

Clasps are from Schoolhousepress, “Classic Clasp, L”.
