Notes

The yarn’s colours remind me of a stormy and rainy day on the coast when I was in Bretagne in May. I took tons of photographs ;-)

Doing 8 repeats of the main body this time.
Did Lichtfaden’s mods for bind off at The Deep Ocean, skipping the last two rows and beading the last yo row. For the bind off, I still knit 3 stitches into the double yarn overs to really open them up.

Yarn A : pure silk, yarn B: changeling
