I have actually had the yarn for this clue for almost a month, but I was focused on my Elora and wasn’t worried about working on this. With my Elora finished I now feel a little bit at loose ends, so I pulled this out this weekend and worked clue 5. When I was not quite half way through I decided to rip back as the gauge seemed a bit too loose and I was worried about running out of yarn. No, I did not do a gauge swatch. I haven’t done a gauge swatch since clue 1. I’m just winging it and if I think it is going to be too loose I rip back. Ripping back never bothers me, and this yarn is very well behaved. I switched to US 7 needles at the start of this clue to work the transition rows, and then switched to US 6 for the lace section. I switched back to US 7 for the last two rows.
