Notes

Clearly, I needed a second Clapotis so that I could wear it with more colors. :)
I’m taking a picture for every day that I’ve knit on the clapotis. Not including the yarn photo, there’s a picture starting from the bottom of the picture list that corresponds to a day of knitting. I also wrote small notes about each day below.

10/1: FINISHED! :D Pictures to come!
9/30: Three more repeats of section 4 completed. No picture taken! oops
9/27: Day 10 of knitting. Wish I had more time for this! I have two repeats of section 4 completed. Two dropped stitches on the left side of the work.
9/25: Day 9 of knitting. I didn’t take any notes so now I can’t remember how far I got!
9/24: Finished row 8 of the 12th repeat in section 3. Only a smidgen more of section 3 to go. I wish I had more time. This one is going slower than my first one did I think, just because I don’t have as much time to knit on it. Picture includes progress for last two days of knitting instead of just one.
9/22: Wow, I haven’t knit for days and days. I got super busy and just didn’t have the time. I only knit 12 rows this time around. One more dropped stitch. Forgot to take a picture!
9/17: Yes! Lot’s more knitting done. I may have this on my shoulders very soon :D Only 50 more straight rows to go (106 behind me). Once I get the straight rows finished, I’ll be sailing from there.
9/16: Day 5 of knitting on this project. I finished about 25 more rows. Only 5 more rows and I’m halfway through. Yay :)
9/15: No knitting on the 14th. It’s been slow going lately. I only did 12 or so rows this time. 4 dropped stitch ladders. I thought I’d get this done a little quicker since I started off so well. I’m working on it! :) (one picture)
9/13: Three dropped stitches done now. (pne picture)
9/12: Didn’t get very far on knitting this today. I only did about 26 rows… but I got to drop my first stitch! Now I’m just working toward all those other dropped stitches. It’s fun to drop a stitch :) (one picture)
9/11: Got to almost the end of the second section by the first night. I went to knit with friends and got a lot done! I hope the rest of the project goes this quickly. (Two pictures)
