Notes

Hey! Ho! Let’s go! (yes I know this is not blues. smile )

Surprisingly fast knit! The pattern looks adorable, too! Sadly, worry about the amount of yarn I have. After just the hem and 5 repeats of the colourwork ate an entire skein of colour A, I began to worry I don’t have enough, even though I purchased 1 extra in hope of making a cowl as well. >.< Intellectually, I’m pretty sure it will be enough, but the nagging feeling persists.

ok, I now am confident I’ll have enough yarn, AND i decided to make this longer. I’ll have 6 more repeats of the pattern, one of which will be in the yoke colour scheme.
