@halokiwi Many thanks for your tip. Yes, I mean the drop loop. I am somehow quite complicated and don't know which knots I have to leave out in order to start the pattern regularly. Difficult to explain.
First you would do the teardrop loop like you usually would and then you can start knotting row by row. Since you have a v-shape start, there are some knots left out in the centre of the first few rows. It might be helpful, if you draw your V into a screenshot of the pattern so you are able to see which knots you need to do and which you don't need to do.
@litrosie I really like the colors you used! Did you use a variation for this pattern? If not, you really should make a variation based on the colors you used!
@arf820 Thank you so much! I wasn't really happy about how the edges turned out on my version # 1, so I tried this as soon as that one was finished (aka "I refuse to give up on this pattern"). 🙂 @onarts_ is right, it was great fun, and surprisingly easy to memorize after the first repetition.
