Notes

September 24, 2017

A: mauve
B: dark green
C: variegated blue
D: peach

My first attempt with suggested needle size made a too-tight wrist, so I’m casting on again with 1 size larger (and trying to loosen up). I haven’t done much colour work and find it quite fun!

I also didn’t like the dark green, so I’m switching up the colours as well.

So I ended up with totally different colours (mind you, this is all crappy scraps so I didn’t have an ideal situation:

A: burgundy
B: peach
C: variegated blues
D: mauve

It’s OK, but honestly next time I’m going up ANOTHER needle size and I think I’m only going to use 3 colours, using the hand contrast as the cast on cuff, and the stripes colour in the thumb.
