What’s better than working with one gradient yarn? Two gradient yarns! By bringing together two different aran weight gradient hues in an effortless stockinette stitch striped repeat, knitters will not only construct and interesting color pattern within a color pattern perfect to capture baby’s attention, but will also create an attractive diagonal stripe motif with simple increases and decreases on the edges by knitting on the bias. Finish off the edges with a garter border. A fine example of letting the yarn do the work for you, this is a project that looks more complex than it is and will truly celebrate gradient yarns.
