Notes
  • Pattern was clearly written and easy to follow - made mods to my body as needed.
  • Love this yarn texture, washability, wearability, hate the bias. Think I have at least a kg of this shit that is NOT over twisted. Check your samples, bish.
  • Shrunk a good bit vertically, but also, I made it smaller overall than I prefer.
  • Beige swatch gauge was 10 sts x 16 rows @ 4”.
  • Yellow blanket, after washing and use, is more like 8.5 sts x 14 rows @ 4”. Go figure.
