Notes

Swatched on 4s, went down a size for the shawl.

After completing the swatch I started with 101 grams of color A (blue) and 102 grams of color B (yellow).

After section one I had 69 grams of color A and 92 grams of color B remaining.

After section one I had 69 grams of color A and 21 grams of color B. Getting scary!

After row 58 in section three I had 6 grams of color A left. After row 62 I had 4 grams left.

5/21/2015- Played yarn chicken with color B…AND WON! Had to unravel my swatch, and ended up with about 12” left.

At the end of the project I have 19 grams of color A and 0 grams of color B left.
