Notes

05-21-2021

Fray-checking the fringe ends today. I’m struck by how beautiful this yarn is!

05-22-2021

Wet-blocked (used Soak) to 72” wide and 38” to tip. After dry and unpinned, the final measurement is 70’ x 36”. This yarn blocked beautifully.

05-22-2021

After row 21, repeated Row 12 to 21 three times more as directed, but then as the final repeat, I worked Row 12 - 20 one more time. I had 81 grams left of my fourth and final ball of yarn. This turned out to be 22 yds short for cutting the fringes even after doing the math and calculating, then going with cutting 17.5” lengths. Maybe due to stretchiness, the yardage on the label was a bit deceiving, or maybe my math skills!

Ended up having to sequence the fringe in this way:
2 strand, 3 strand, 3 strand, repeat from along one entire side, then three-3-strand fringes at bottom point (one 3-strand fringe in each space). Continue final side as for first side.
