Notes

Using Red Heart yarn I have in my stash…trying to use it up. I used up a little more than 4 skeins of large Red Heart yarns.

Cast on 259 stitches to make it wider. Half way through I realized I shouldn’t have done that since I didn’t have enough yarn to make it as long as needed. Oh well. I wasn’t going to tear it all out now!

Since it wasn’t going to be as long, I Knit 18-1/2” straps instead of 24.

Instead of sewing on the straps, I knit them in (3 needle knit) into the first right side row of last section. And when sewing on the buttons, I realized I knit the buttonholes on the wrong end. Oh well!

Finished size: 55” x 40”
