Notes

11-22-2016

I’m making some good progress. Finished the first section and am now at the alternating ridges. I’m not sure I have enough of the light gray to follow the pattern exactly, but we’ll see.

01-03-2017

I’m running out of Color B - the purple and Color C the light gray. So I decreased the middle section and will probably swap out Color A for Color B for the rest of the final section. I have a LOT of Color A. This sucker is plenty big enough….

01-05-2017

So… I lost at yarn chicken. Not once, but twice. I absolutely did not have enough of either Color A or Color B to finish this with any sort of resemblance to the pattern. But it is plenty big enough already, and this BFL… man, I’m a fan. It is so squishy! Dream to knit.
