I love you!!! Nice to see a creative person sharing their tips and tricks!! Instead of me marking 1 & 2, I use B & W so I know what color needle to start on
so is it 90 rows of patter or 90 including your first 60.? you said you were at row 96, but i don't know if that included the first 60 or just 96 of pattern rows.
i used 4mm wide yarn and the pattern is very loose in places. i could have easily been doing something wrong. will try again. can you perhaps clarify how the rounds are ordered? 1 round by hand, 1 by crank and then 2 by hand 2 by crank?
