Linen Stitch creates an amazing fabric: It can accommodate lots of seemingly unrelated colors and blend them into a cohesive and attractive colorway. The sample project uses tints and shades of several analogous colors (reds, orange, pinks, and lavender.) Best of all, the yarn tails are incorporated into the fringe, making finishing quick and easy!
