Notes

Took a smaller hook than recommended, because the gauge was too big. After 4 rows I noticed it looks nothing like it should and after reading the description for the 20th time I finally that it says “ch space” and not “ch” or “dc” ;) So I frogged and started over, I hope this time I am doing this right.
By the way, the yarn is really not nice when it comes to frogging.

60% done (21 cm). However, it is too small, the circumference is only about 115 cm, instead of 125 cm. I am seriously thinking about starting over. I like the smaller hook, the gaps between the dcs are perfect, so I would need to go with more than 200 ch (according to my quick calculation, 216 should be fine).

It was definitely too tight, so I started over with 220 chains. We will see.

Finally finished :) It took ages, I started and finished at least 5 other projects in between.
It is still quite tight, but it will do. I used up all my Big Delight Wild Berry Yarn, so the height is 35 cm.
