This pattern has been tested and tech-edited; thank you to my wonderful testers :)

Knitting consists of various single stitches put together in a logical, consistent manner to create a single piece of fabric. Cohesion exemplifies this concept; individual pattern panels have been put together in a thoughtful way to create a unified design.

The panels have been developed in a way that they can be omitted or interchanged in the design to suit the knitter, making the design appeal to a broad range of knitters’ preferences and experiences.

While the design is visually complex enough to appeal to more experienced knitters, the pattern is ideal for new knitters wanting to expand beyond basic stockinette or garter stitch.

As the pattern is intended to be a teaching pattern, it includes both written and charted instructions for creating moss, lace, garter and cable panels. The pattern also includes guidance on using charts, as well as relevant information to help the knitter understand the methods used to create the stitches for each panel.
