Notes

I love the yarn and the pattern, which is very forgiving if you forget what you are doing once in awhile…

I’m not sure about the colors I picked. Now that I’m craving Spring, I might rip out the grey and use citron instead.

I stuck with the grey and like the way it came out.

You can see in one of the pictures where I changed the red yarn and the dye lot was different. I’m not too worried about it because you don’t notice at all when it is wrapped around my neck, but I might add a row of buttons on that line to make it a design feature.

Modifications: I only did 19 contrasting stripes and 3 eyelet holes for the trim.

Pictures are prior to blocking.
