Clue 2 went pretty fast. This is actually pretty good knitting for working on while I’m reading, which allowed me to catch up on my Heinlein biography. I’m really liking my colors. I put in a lifeline, as recommended by the designer, and am also using markers, which I rarely do. I did make one mistake - I forgot an increase at the very end of the first increase row in the pink section. At first I thought about adding an increase on a later row, but the next increase row had you skip the increase in the first section, so I did not skip that increase and that got me to the correct stitch count. The last row establishes a new pattern, with 14 stitch markers instead of 11, so I figured it wouldn’t make a difference. The pattern called for m1r increases, but I did lifted increases instead. I just like them better. I’ve been weaving in my ends as I go so I don’t have all that finishing to do later. I did the same thing on my Xuan Wrap.
