Notes

9-29-2019: updated photo. Still enjoying wearing my Starshower!
Aug 12: After bath and blocking - a very different piece: nicer, larger size and prettier color; the colors ended up being muted a bit by the bath, which I like. When I finished knitting (second photo) I felt that it didn’t come out nearly as big as it appears in the pattern photo even though it was knit to the correct measurements. Washing and blocking made a big difference.I like the size now and will enjoy wearing it.

Aug 10: middle photo is pre-blocking night-time bathroom lighting. Much smaller in this photo (before bath).

Aug 1: Started this as a KAL with friend Rosie - Tiggie2
Colorway “Breakfast at Tiffany’s” is exclusive to my LYS Colorful Yarns in Centennial, CO - named after the owner Tiffany.
