3/11/2018 UPDATE:
Beautiful spring day for a FO photo shoot. Finally brought out my 6th Clapotis for proper photos.
My 1st Clapotis is still my favorite: https://www.ravelry.com/projects/LilithDow/clapotis

This pattern is a joy to do! Great pattern for mindless knitting (so addictive & hard to put down) and great yarn. Perfect pattern for between projects and TV watching.

/Finished Measurements: 78” Length x 15” Width

Needles: Addi Turbo Lace
used US 6 initially; switch to US 7 for more openess and drape.

Yarn: Begin w/ 179 grams

Pattern Alteration:
“instead of using stitch markers to mark the stitch to be dropped, purl that stitch instead (it’s the knit stitch between the two k tbl sts). and knit it on the other side. this will make the purl side a bit easier to bear and you won’t have any makers to worry about losing or to dig into your hands.” per Mermaiden.
