worked on this during knitting on Wednesday night, and the increases just didn’t look right: my marker was in the wrong place! And I didn’t do the increases for the cuff section correctly, so I ripped and started again. This is so much better, I’m using tips from the BSJ wiki page here on ravelry…

Bought a selection of colors seen in nature and supplemented it with what was left in my baby yarn stash of the same base. Picked hexagons for being from the “Bee” family and game inspired because a lot of board games use hexes too. Most of the hexagons are a unique set of 3 colors….
