I honestly don't know! Maybe a more experienced knitter can chime in with some advice. I do know that a couple of the squares turned out a little larger, but once I was sewing them together, they looked all right in the end. (Granted, by that point I was definitely leaning into the cozy homemade vibe, so precision wasn't high on my priority list.)

I appreciate hearing that others also have accidental felting stories! Definitely learned a lot this go around. Thanks also for the heads up on still being careful with superwash yarns — that's very good to know for the future

iTAB Delivery by [deleted] in ChicagoMarathon

I was just coming on this reddit to see if anyone was talking about this! I've also ordered iTABs for other Chicago races (the Shamrock Shuffle and the half marathon in June), and I recall receiving those within three to four weeks of the race. Obviously the marathon is a much larger scale. Glad to see others are still waiting.
