Im working on it. I had trouble with brioche, but got it. Im disappointed that that the gray doesn't show the details of the arrow stitch more, but the rest is fine. Will start edging 8n a few days.

I am SO close to being done but I'm really enjoying this pattern. I'm looking forward to wrapping myself up on cool Colorado evenings. Once it's blocked, I'll post a picture.

A wonderful pattern that was intriguing to knit! I loved the texture of this one, alternating the brioche with a variation on a gansey pattern. I’m almost ready to start the edging and looking forward to it.
Thank you again for another lovely pattern and MKAL!
