Notes

Starting this while at the beginning of Ta Nehisi Coates’ “Water Dancer.”

I love it!! If I knit this again (& I’m sure I will) I would knit the mohair portion above the peaks a few inches longer before doing the neckline.

Such an enjoyable and quick knit!! The voolenvine ghost lace is unbelievably soft so I couldn’t help but knit long sleeves. This is, by far, my favorite thing of all the things I have ever knit!
