Coachella! Love the design of this and after knitting something incredibly hot (to wear) I really need somthing summery.
Unfortunately, I have no new pics to show today like I had hoped.
The yarn I choose is giving me headaches because it won’t knit up to the gauge the lable suggested (which should have been perfect for Coachella).
I have ripped 4 times already and thought about rewriting the pattern to work for size 6 or 7 needles (instead of the 9’s it calls for) but I really had my heart set on a quick and simple knit so I may just double strand instead.
It’s time for dinner and then I will starting knitting and see where I can get by bedtime.
That stinks that you have to do some much ‘thinking’ on a simple knit! If anyone is going to refigure a pattern you are the one to do it. You are so good at it!
Good luck and can’t wait to see!

Yay for Coachella – this is an absolutely awesome pattern! Actually I have it high up on my “Must Knit” list as well – so far I didn’t get round to cast on for it, but I will certainly watch your progress with a lot of interest and curiosity! It’s going to be beautiful, that’s for sure! Good luck with the maths to change the gauge, but I know you’ll make it work perfectly!
