This pattern almost looks like it’s vibrating and made me feel happy to knit, so I decided to call it “Positive Vibes”
- I also gave my original one as a “positive vibes” gift to a friend - it makes her smile and it makes me smile to see her wearing it.

Who will yours be for ?

Relaxing mosaic knitting (just one colour per row) is given extra pizazz by using a gradient yarn.

The bind-off uses my own special “faux I-cord” - I personally prefer it to I-cord because it lays flat (plus it’s quicker and easier to work - and doesn’t take as much yarn - what’s not to like ? ) but if you prefer traditional icord you can use that instead.

The original used a single skein of the Freia Ombre with a contrasting solid.

Yardage given is the total - allow 1/2 for each yarn.

BECAUSE OF THE COLOURWORK - THE PATTERN IS CHARTED - IF YOU NEED ASSISTANCE, WHY NOT DROP IN TO THE MOSAIC KNITTING THREAD IN THE STITCHNERDS GROUP - click here for link

Clarification: the symbol on the LH side of the chart is for the icord edge - the k2 and sl2 instruction in the key is for the 2 sts - so for each symbol just work 1 stitch.

Many thanks to the testers:
