Project Notes:

Malabrigo Rios, Hollyhock, size 7 US (note that I knit very loosely), I cast on 80 and did diamonds in multiples of ten for three full diamonds, at which point on the row immediately afterwards I did a yo before and after the sl1-k2tog-psso at the tip of the diamond on what would have been the wrong side row if I hadn’t been knitting in the round.

This made diamonds in multiples of 12. It also meant every other diamond in that section had a bottom half longer than its top half, which showed a lot to my eyes while I was knitting it, but after rinsing and drying I had to look closely to even notice. So: I did one and a half full diamonds in the larger size and managed to win at yarn chicken with several rows’ worth to spare.

Next time I’ll cast on 90, even though that won’t get me as much length, in order to make a looser neck.

I really should go run in those ends.
