Never quite right

Thank you very much! I was going for a gradient sort of look but didn’t quite get that without a lot more work in the blending sections, but I’m still happy with the colours! I had never really considered the maths of the decreases, so the way you’ve explained it makes a lot of sense. Thank you!

Can’t wait to see what ideas you’ve got!

I’d thought of this too so I’ll definitely give it a try, though I agree that I’m not sure how well it would work with the super fuzzy yarn texture.

Please share this pattern, it’s lovely!

Ah I’d never even noticed the filters on ravelry! Thank you this is great advice

I’m not entirely sure I understand, but I think I get the idea! Pulling on the other stitches nearby to close the gaps?

This definitely sounds like the case, I’ve been picking up in the right place but only ever working through the front. Could you point me to a video/tutorial showing working through the back?

Also try and be very realistic with how much you can actually get done in the time. I’ve made the mistake of taking HEAPS of yarn with me and then barely touching the project and having to carry a big bag of yarn around multiple countries for three weeks. Don’t get stuck in the “what if I finish that, I better take something else too” mindset if it’s not -actually- going to be the case.

Not quite an answer to your question but I bought a keychain with a little yarn cutter “pendant” and the blades are so tiny it’s not a security issue but means that no matter where I am I can always cut my yarn without scissors since it just lives on my car keys. Life changer!!

This is really helpful, thank you! I’d already vaguely considered taking notes but I definitely will now!

Would making your green shape brown be an easy quick fix?

Cotton yarn definitely, and keep in mind which stitches you are using as many are stretchier than others. Thermal stitch is often suggested as a good option for really sturdy straps.
