Clapotis progress

I am two rows into the first repeat on the straight rows. I really do like how the andean silk is working up. Such a nice drape and so soft! I am excited to get to the first place I get to drop a stitch. Almost like a present waiting for me, egging me on to keep going in the pattern.

I checked my guage and I'm getting 4.5 spi on size US 8s, so I am just going to stick with that since the pattern calls for 4.75 spi, I figure that's close enough for this item for me. In a diagonal row with 106 sts, it means I'll get 23.5" rather than 22.3" - that's close enough for me.
