Notes

Started with a size 8 needle but it looked too loose and I didn’t like it. Went down to a size 7.

After knitting the Stockinette section I decided I wasn’t a fan of how smooth that was and all the other accent colors were more “rustic” (for lack of a better word) so I frogged that section and followed Section B.

I only have 100 yds of the yellow/gold yarn so I made a shorter section with that color. Hopefully I’ll have enough when I get to the other end!

Pre-blocked: 73”
After blocking: 83”
