Notes

I’ve been fighting with the Spiral Crocheted Afghan Lion Brand pattern for ages now. I wanted so badly to use this yarn on it and make it work, but the stitch counts kept coming out all wrong, and it had a massive ripple that kept it from laying flat. I started over on it at least 3 times.

Enough is enough. I decided to just use a simpler pattern so I could finally get this yarn worked and get on to some other projects. I’m loving the way it’s working up so far.

EDIT: Finally finished! I can’t remember when I got it done, actually, but I know it was still wintertime because I got a ton of use out of it, haha! It’s very warm and cozy, and I can wrap up in it like a robe with a hood. It’s fantastic. It doesn’t match a single thing in my house, but I love it anyway.
