Really fun mindless Netflix project - and the end result looks really impressive !

As others have noted the yarn requirements for this project are WAAAAY off. I bought 6 balls of each colour, but I ran out of black on row 21/22 in the last stripe. I had 1 ball left of white at this point which clearly wasn’t going to be enough for 24 rows of 800 stitches !

So, I ripped back 20 rows leaving just 1 K row of black after the 18 row white stripe (i.e no bump) to make a nice smooth colour change for the 4 stitch I cord bind off.

I used 5 balls of white, and 5.5 balls of black .
