Discontinued. This digital pattern is no longer available online.

This pattern was developed to give students a taste of colorwork with a simple chart and big needles. Now it’s online so anyone can give it a try!

Techniques used include ribbing, joining in the round, using circular and double pointed needles, and decreasing by k2tog. Sidebars in the pattern give hints and reminders for those new to colorwork.
