Swatch x3 done in 8mm, 9mm, and 10mm needle sizes.
Decided on 10mm, as it gives the correct tension needed.
Done all of the first row in knit by accident. 
So the actual starting row 1 of the pattern is now my row 2.
Must remember - Do one knit row at end before casting off.

I’ve done 9 rows of the pattern, and it just seems a lil holey. Like pinkie finger hole size easily.
Not safe for a baby. Philangies and/or hands would get stuck. And if I gave it to a child (Lins said Sahara would love it - well duh! It’s pink.), They’d end up catching it on stuff. I know I would.
