One of these days I will learn to actually read the directions all the way through. I sort of read them, and then I didn’t go back and look at them when I started knitting, so instead of decreasing the number of rows that I knit with each of the mini skeins I knit the same number of rows - 10. And then wondered how that was going to work for making 5 more triangles. Of course it wasn’t going to work. I realized my mistake as I was knitting the last couple of mini skeins, but at that point I decided that I was committed and did not want to rip back or change what I was doing, so I just went with it. I do like the size of my triangle. The original pattern was more of a long scarf, which I’m just not that in to. I did manage to get a second matching triangle out of the yarn. Here are the weights of the mini-skeins after knitting the second triangle:
1 - 15 g
2 - 13.8 g
3 - 12.4 g
4 - 10.8 g
5 - 9.7 g
6 - 6.9 g
7 - 6.2 g
8 - 4.9 g
9 - 3.4 g
10 - 1.5 g
Just made it. Now I have to decide what to do next.
