Notes

Blocked to dimensions of 74 inches by 13.5 inches. I really like this pattern.


Notes for me:

  • 3/16 After trying a few ways to carry the CC yarn up the side, I decided to just break yarn and weave in. I couldn’t find a method that looked as nice as just weaving it in.

    I’ve been wanting to knit a Leftie for a while now. Originally this was meant for me, but Vanessa has been eyeing and complimenting my other Leftie for a while. So now her own is in progress.

  • 3/25 Bound off. There was a knot in the Chroma, so it seemed a good place to end. I got to 26 leaves total, and still have about 17 grams of the Palette left. It’s a good size though. I’m also loving the Watercolor Chroma colorway. It’s like a softer version of Prism.
