Notes

This is my first intarsia project, and that aspect of the pattern has been really easy to learn.

02-6-2019

I picked up my provisional cast-on from a crochet chain.

02-11-2019

I’ve chosen to print and follow the written/table instructions, but it was useful to glance at the charts during the first dozen rows or so.

02-15-2019

Finished the first four wedges! Looks like the pattern varies significantly during the central wedge so this may require a bit more focus.

02-23-2019

For hand painted yarns, consider mirroring use on each side of the shawl (ex. use one skein for the first two and last two wedges). If the skeins differ significantly it will be less noticeable this way.

Finished cast off!

Photo shoot day with Katie Stember Photography! I’ve been under the weather, so Austin was kind enough to help model.
