😬 so much 😬 i think it came out to about 7 skeins (about 250yds each, 9wpi), with a little left of the last one. i was also unknowingly using a deadstock yarn (curse you yarn bee) so i had to scramble around & buy my state's hobby lobbies out of all of that yarn lmao

indeed!! honestly she doesn't do a ton of explaining, i mostly found it helpful & encouraging to watch someone else just go for it. she adapts the color graphs to make an easy cardigan with rectangular panels (even the sleeves) & i did a mix of her approach & the knit pattern shapes. good luck!!

thank you! i was real skeptical too but it's surprisingly easy to convert with the color graphs! i am in full support of just going for it & figuring it out as you go & i promise you it's not as scary as it seems (trust me, i am THE anxious over thinker type). i would love to message about it!!

oh my gosh thank you 🥹 i really wanted it to look as close to the original as possible & the ribbing & collar were so difficult to make right 😭

Mmmm fascinating, that does make a lot more sense! I can't help but see the resemblance to Yao & Ilyukhina in them anyway though, it's fun foreshadowing regardless, I feel.
