~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Modifications:

  • Worked 20 rounds of 1 x 1 ribbing for the cuff Cast on 42 stitches (long-tail tubular cast on with 2 rounds of double knitting)
  • Did thumb gusset increases every 3rd round instead of EOR
  • I started the thumb gusset with a m1R, k1, m1L
  • After putting the gusset stitches on waste yarn, I cast on 1 stitch
  • The color work section has written directions only, so I charted it
  • Picked up 5 stitches across the thumb gap and decreased down to 16 stitches
  • Worked 4 rounds of 1x1 ribbing on thumb
