Notes

12-24-2016

Finished the shell; ran out of yarn on the bindoff row and decided to rip back two. Both my Rolands have cut it really close on the shell yarns, so if I make this from Hometown again I may want to get an extra skein just in case.

So short on the blue that I had to use three pieces of leftover ends from skein changes to knit the antennae. But it was finished.
