well I finished the first skein (and then my spinning bag containing my fiber and drop spindle got lost on my road trip) and I swatched

but yeah apparently my math was wrong because it is much longer than I expected it to be

I designed this project keeping in mind my love of the ocean and and the swirling colors that come to mind

but the rows are so long that instead of gently changing colors i have stripes! I'm about 2000 stitches into the project

should I frog and restart with less stitches so the colors hae a better gradation or just keep going?

instead of frogging right away, can you restart from the other end of the ball of yarn & then frog if you feel the new section looks better?

that way you can see if you like how it looks with the new stitch count
