Notes

02/08 I slipped purlwise the 1st stitch of each row, for a neater edge : no bumps on edges.

01/08 As I found a mistake in the pattern I had to rip and start again.
Then, as the contrast colour yarn was too thin, I changed and chose a nice blend 60% merino superwash, 20% silk 20% yak, fingering weight, Lilac color with grey shades, and to go up to a DK yarn I added a strand of Katia Airsoft. This is Dr Shinie.
The main yarn will still be my blackberry DK cashmere from Coulourmart, very matte, this is Mr Matte.
