Knitting - 21 Color Slouch

Pattern: 21 Color Slouch by Virginia Sattler-Reimer
Yarn: Blue Sky Fibers Woolstok, all 21 colours

Mods: Towards the end I had to fudge some of the colours as I ran short - my gauge must have been slightly out (I didn't measure gauge, naughty) or something. Otherwise I knit exactly as written, which is virtually unheard of for me!

Verdict: I really like it. Even weaving in ALL OF THE ENDS wasn't too much of a chore. I haven't actually blocked it yet, and it's a great size/shape, so I think I'll maybe lightly block it. I was too excited to wear it though!

As I was knitting it I was a little disappointed with the contrast between some of the colours. If I were to do it again I might shuffle the colours round a little bit to avoid putting the burgundy and red together, for example.
