Pattern mods:
- Took a tip from Yarn Harlot and purled the stitches to be dropped. This eliminated the need for stitch markers.
- Added one extra set of increases.
- Used 3oz for the increase section, then started the decreases when there was approx 3-1/4oz of yarn left.

Beautiful! You're going to have one very happy friend. You knit faster than I do - I started on Monday & I'm still on the straight section and just getting ready to drop stitch column #7.

Fabulous! I can't believe you knit that in a week. You are the speediest speedypants in all of speedyland.
