I started out with size 7 needle and k1p1 knit and it was too dense so I switched to size 10 and it was perfect. I taught myself to knit continential with this scarf. When gifting this, I made a flower to tie it up, and that turned out very pretty.
Gauge swatch on size 8. Went down to size 7 for the blanket. Gauge swatch had several steeks cut into it for testing. Best was when the steek was around 2 single stitches instead of further apart. Used Crochet method to secure stitches, tacked down on the back and did a row of shell stitch…
improvised. double i-cord edge, garter, light lace, cables, picked up for 2 color brioche. improved skills in casting on in pattern and kitchener in pattern. bound off with italian bind off from Brioche Chic book’s version of the instructions.
