Notes

Got the gauge on 6s in stockinette, but was getting more like 23st/in for the colorwork. Just went up to a 7 and hoping for the best!

8/2: Just finished the colorwork portion. I used only one ball of the MC for this part. I used a little more than half of CC1, almost all of CC2, and about half of CC3.

Love it! Used a 6 for the stockinette sections, 7 for colorwork and 4 for the ribbing. Did the lengths in the pattern, but don’t know if colorwork grew after blocking. The Cloudborn yarn is super soft. Maybe a little too soft. I worry if it will hold up well.
