Sampler Stole KAL

Well I gave the linen yarn a try, but two things stopped me; one, the yarn was so brittle that the lumpiness of those troublesome K2tog's wasn't about give and stretch into submission. Second, Eunny mentioned, the garter stitch lace was looking just plain ugly, so there was very little "Keep on knitting me, the rewards are great" happening. So I gave up on the linen, and was just about to start on my 3700 yard stash of red cobweb weight Cashwool when a stash of recently frogged Silkywool insisted on auditioning for the job. I tried to resist, but to no avail, so picked up my #6 circs and cast on. Fortunately, I got past the dreaded Row 6, past the Sl1-k2tog-psso's only forgetting to yo a few times, and got to the end of the first repeat. The piece looked like a felted ball of chenille at that point - until the magic of blocking, where a hint of what could be has emerged.
However...the unblocked 14" x 5 3/8" piece has stretched to a whopping 21" x 8 1/2". Obviously I'm going to have to adjust the repeats and maybe even the edging. My big worry is if my ten skeins of Silkywool (1900 yards) will be enough. Eva's chart tells me I'm 7% done, but it feels like I used up an awful lot of yarn. I'll keep you posted. It feels wonderful, but the way. Love the way Silkywool drapes.
