Notes

14/10/2011 - Knit a test swatch in worsted weight yarn to get a feel for the pattern and the potential colours. LOVE IT. I love the swatch so much, I think I might make a blanket out of a bunch of them.

Right now I’m swatching on US6 needles to get a feel for this yarn. I think they’re going to work.

15/11/2011 - So a month later and I finally start it. It’s taken three days but the first portion of the shawl is done. The next section is taking almost two hours to complete a row. I’ve only done three rows of the chart and I need to set it aside for christmas knitting.
