Notes

Because I’m working 10-16 hour days, doing my graduate project, and I need something SIMPLE. Beautiful, endless, soothing rows of garter stitch sound awesome.

It seems like there is a great divide among knitters - to YO or not to YO: that is the question! I fall solidly into the curly edge fan club. The tighter cast on side makes for a better wrap IMHO, so will follow the pattern to the letter.

Sep 30 - finished section 2.
Oct 8 - finished short row section.

Finished with 11 garter stitch rows, and used Russian bind off with a 4.5 mm needle. It seems to be perfect.

Final total weight: 224 grams.
