Notes

Gauge swatch with #6 needles gave 25 sts = 3.5 in.

Long-tail CO with #8 needles 220 sts. (originally tried 160 sts, but it turned out looking too stripey)

Continued knitting in pattern until 12 g left, then BO with #8 needles and knitted BO.

I don’t love the stockinette edge. Rolled edges just make me cringe. Next time I’ll ignore the edging and just do the whole thing in pattern. Maybe start off the first few rows in garter st.
