Notes

I started making the Medium size on 4.5mm needles, but it was HUGE. (Likely a gauge issue; don’t take it as any gospel or anything.)

So I frogged, and cast on the small size on 4mm needles, and it’s going great. Super simple, and relaxing.

11 Dec 2012: And done! I’ll certainly make more of these, possibly with cables. Fun times.
