NOTES

  • LOVELY yarn!!! Completely snugly and warm fabric!
  • Pattern was very simple and easy to do. Got kind of annoying near the halfway mark, since you’re knitting 300-400ish stitches before you can reach the end of the row. I don’t k now how many stitches I actually got to at the halfway mark, I didn’t bother counting.
  • I plan on making a giant version of this for a throw on my couch. It will be SO comfy to use on my lazy nights when I’m snuggled up watching TV. Can’t wait!
