Once I figured out the charts, it was smooooooth sailing. I stayed up ALL NIGHT knitting it. Seriously. I'm really happy I ended up buying yarn for it (I went to the store last minute before they closed to get a size 5 circular needles, but there were none so instead I bought yarn to go with needles I already had), because I really wouldn't have enjoyed this as much with my stash stuff. The yarn I got was cheap ($6 for three skeins) and it's soft, and it's PINK.

I'm going to make at least one more of these, because I want to figure out a better hem, and I want to make sure my charts are accurate. The crown was a pain in the ass chartwise, because for some reason I couldn't figure out how it would look on paper, even if I knew what I was doing. I want to do a different color pattern, most likely with the yarn I bought for this but in a different order. It needs to have all three colors, because there's a pentagon on the top in red (if it's not obvious). Suggestions?

Oh, yes, and I'll be posting the pattern and charts when they're all done and pretty and not completely scribbled on and crossed out all over.
