Notes

Eryngium is the botanical name for sea holly

Will use both balls at once to give a nice long gradient. The colours are incredible and the yarn is lustrous and sumptuous, this is going to be special!

Beads? Not sure yet …

Started with a narrow picot hem.

March 23: ready to bind off, only a few metres of Sea Thistle remaining so will Navajo ply the fine silk and use that for the edge. Will try adding beads to the picots.
