Notes

Using up some of the tiny little ends of yarn that I can’t bare to toss, but aren’t enough to make something on their own. All lace weights held double, fingering single.

Started out with the last of my Artyarns Kaleidoscope kit as round 1 and 3 of granny squares. Meadow as 2nd round and granny joins for continuity. Made 27 squares instead of 25 because that nicely finished off the Cashmere 1.

Odd rows will alternate between Paulie (row 1, 5, etc) and Meadow (row 3, 7, etc) again for continuity. The colors are very close and I wanted a consistent alternate color but didn’t have enough of any single “scrap” to do this, hope I don’t end up with some leftovers of both…

Row2: Finished Silkpaca, ended row with Malabrigo Lace after that ran out.

Row4: Kidsilk Haze and Silk Cloud in various colors in this row

Row6: Edition 3 and Malabrigo Lace when that ran out

Row8: Artyarns Ensemble Light, scrap worked almost perfectly for one row…had about a foot left

Row10: Gems Fingering. Lots of cuts in the ball, not sure if it happened during storage of the ball, or got the yarn that way, got the yarn a while back

Row12: Malabrigo Lace

Row13: Finished off the Paulie, completing row with last of Meadow.

Row14: Last row, Gems Fingering. Crocheting finished 1/22/18, now just 216+ tails to tuck in…ick now I remember why I never make granny squares.
