Notes

15-09-2018

I bought some beautifully soft yarn way back in the January sales in aqua and light turquoise, that I thought might look good together in a striped scarf/wrap.
I’ve decided to try my Tail of Two Dragons pattern and have worked out a stripe sequence that will (hopefully) change gently from aqua at the start to turquoise for the finish.

Fingers crossed it works!

I’ve just done the last aqua stripe and managed it with one ball with a tiny bit to spare!
I’ve also just started the second ball of turquoise. 30 rows to go I think and I’m hoping I won’t need to start a thirdball.
Update: finished with a tiny bit of ball 2 left!

Pre blocked size
