Notes

Someone asked how much yarn I ended up using so I weighed my leftovers and updated the totals on here. I ended up with 11 green stripes although I think the pattern called for 12. I would have run out of yarn, had I done another.

Loved the Art by Ana yarn. This was a fun and easy knit. The pattern was easy to remember and the gradient green kept me interested. I loved watching the color progress.

When I first saw this design, I thought “everyone is making them crooked”. It took me a minute to realize it was asymmetrical. Blond moment!

Craziest thing: I was sitting at the Knitting Pipeline Retreat and the person sitting behind me (LindaNeedles) taps me on the shoulder and says “Is that a Stripe Study?”. I said yes and, to my surprise, I saw that she was also working on a Stripe Study in virtually the EXACT same colors. Here I thought I was being so original ;) Check out our matching shawls in the last picture.
