Notes

Edit 6/2: HAH! I won! :D Finished knitting it on the two-day drive from New Mexico to North Carolina.. nearly twelve hours per-day of continuous knitting. Ahh! Felted it all secretly at my in-law’s house so my mom wouldn’t know about it, and gave it to her early after it dried. It was a big hit!<3

My ruffles are definitely uneven, but it doesn’t bother me. I’m really happy with how it turned out. I used Palette and WotA, next time I would just use Palette because I prefer how it looks when felted. But still! Love it. Also, this was my first felting project so yay.

I’m on a SERIOUS SCHEDULE with this thing. Cast on 5/23, her birthday is 6/3, but we’re moving in five days and I need to have it felted before then! Ahhh! I have no idea if I can do it but I’m going to try!
