Notes

It was really difficult for me to find the yarns for this project because very often I didn’t like the look of two strands together.
So, at least, I decided to knit a Samen with only one strand at a time and that is not what Steven wanted me to do, I suppose.
But now I am satisfied and I have chosen my favourite colours and two really heavenly yarns.

04/13/2014 still have to knit the last garter stitch section over all stitches, really long rows.
One row= 12min, 3g, 509 stitches in second row of garter stitch section

A Robin’s Egg : 87g before last garter stitch section
( rest 33g )
B Seascape : rest 63g
C Cumolunimbus : rest 76g
D Simple Things : rest 51g
E Into Dust : rest 57g

Weight 230g.
