Phew! The blocks are done. All 28 of them! See KIP #3.

This project is a Lily Go creation. Remember KIP #1? Lily gave this to me as a ‘thank you’ for test-knitting Falling Leaves top. I really love her pattern as the instructions are easy to follow; although the rate of difficulty is stated as intermediate.
