Notes

2ply fingering handspun Portland fleece. Dyed with woad from the allotment in 2015.

Border pattern easy to memorise after one repeat.

19-06-2016

Finished border last night. Picked up this morning - I actually picked up and knitted against instruction. First row of pattern set, now need to go and sort out dyeing in oven.

29-06-2016

Finished last night. There is a missed row towards the beginning of the penultimate row of trees - I missed a plain row out and didn’t realise for a few rows after that the patterning side had changed ends. Never mind, you have to look really hard to spot it.

Blocked out this morning on my bed, covered with a sheet so the cats don’t pull all the pins out.

66”, 168cm across the top.
