    This yarn is like trying to knit with Velcro!!!!!
    Definitely NOT a fast knit… aaaaaaarrrrrrrgh!!!
    It hasn't actually taken a year to knit! There have been a lot of very long gaps between knitting this, as I had to psych myself up to pick it up each time. Could only knit about 5 rows before it makes your hands hurt.

    Needles & Hooks

    • Circular 25.00mm (US 50) 150cm
    Other : As I didn't have a 25mm cable needle, I improvised with a 25mm crochet hook :)

    Accessories

    Other : I found that the only way to join each new ball was to use a needle & thread, overlap the yarn ends by about 4cm and sew through the yarn to secure it and 'lose' the join.

    Measurements

    Notes: 52" x 66" (132 x 168 cm)
