Why not cozy up behind the pretty wallpaper in a wrap that doesn’t involve a single purl stitch and only asks you to work with one color at a time. Wallpaper Lattice is a mosaic stitch pattern that will keep you interested as you knit and forms a pleasing diamond grid. Choose two high-contrast dyed-in-the-wool yarns (as shown) or try complementary hand-dyed shades for a tonal version.
