For less tightness and more length, if I were to make another one, I would consider going up to size 4s (although then I’m sure I’d have to get another ball of Calmer and we don’t make $22 hats around here dahlin).
After knitting Rogue, Shedir was much, much easier because I was familiar with Jenna’s charts.
I don’t know why, but at first I found the symbols confusing, but they are really so intuitive that after one chart of Rogue, I didn’t need to refer back to the legend or key again.
