Notes

my first mosaic project. this is shadow pattern #30 from Barbara Walker’s Mosaic Knitting.

holy shizzle! mosaic knitting is fun!

thalassa reincarnated: karlchen top down. a little longer. ribbing slightly more than 10% fewer stitches, thank you Mrs. Zimmermann. Cast on 8 and increased to 112 stitches so that the pattern would fit in the round. just before ribbing, i decreased to 96 stitches, and at the ribbing switched to size 5 needles. the new thalassa fits husband perfectly. success!
