The neutral colors were a set, and the pink was something I bought at another time.
Started with 50g of the neutral colors, so I knew I wouldn’t have quite enough for all of it. Adapted to have less stripes after c2 and c3 brioche when I ran out of c2, and did the same number after that for c3 striped with c4. Did more rows of brioche for this final section, and then a few stripes to use the final bit of c4. One row of c1 and then an i-cord bind off made a nice edge.
