My yarn for clue 4 arrived this past week so I immediately wound it and started work. This one didn’t take me too long, but definitely took me longer than it should have. First I came up short on the stitch count on one of the sides after the first row. Turns out I had missed working a stitch on the last row for the previous clue. Fortunately it was towards the end of the last row of that clue, so it was an easy fix. Then I got the entire first round done and did not like the join of the first round when I came around to start the next round, so I ripped back and started over. Then I got the first round finished again and discovered I had missed a chain one, right at the beginning, after the first two stitches. So I ripped back again. Sigh. I do like the fact that ripping is so easy in crochet, because I tend to do a fair bit. But now it is all done and I love it. The Luster Worsted is very soft and it drapes beautifully. Now I just have to wait for the next color and the next clue.
