Halfway through with April strip

Hi. I saw from some of the posts that people were having trouble with the mock braid pattern. I, however, really like it. It must be the wool I'm using -- Knitpicks Merino Style -- but it looks to me like it has plenty of three-dimension-ality. It also feels really snuggly.

I'm really loving this project overall. The strips are narrow enough that you feel like you're really making progress with them -- and if you make a mistake it isn't too heartbreaking to rip it out. Just about the time I get really sick and tired of a pattern, it's time to change. I just hope the kimono turns out. I'm worried about putting it together.
