Progress on Eiffel

A slow start to my first SKC knitalong. I had to go out and try to find some 3.5 mm circs, which I couldn't, and so I used 3.25. (am I already inviting trouble?)

I also had issues casting on, in that I did it 3 times and each time twisted the damn stitches. I still don't know what I did wrong, but just un-twisted it in the end and now that the progress you see here. Soon I'll move up to the 4 mm needles. We'll see if my gamble on the 3.25s worked out!

It shouldn't matter what size you use as long as you get the gauge - is that part working out OK? The color looks great BTW. Which yarn did you choose?

Thanks :) I hope I can get it done within a few weeks (well, maybe...)
The pattern seems simple enough.
