This test was such an enjoyable knit! Watching the colourwork evolve was engaging. Having some at the beginning was exciting at the start and at the end. It’s worked in bottom up so the most challenging part for me was the miles of stockinette. This languished a bit in that stage. Plus I really take my commitments to tests very seriously, and that’s why a deadline really helps.

The designer, Joyce has been very responsive to the two queries I had in a very timely manner on Yarn Pond which is a platform new to me. I really liked how on the site there were checkpoints in the project with date deadlines. Amazing.
