This cotton belt is worked in one direction only, some rows with the black yarn only, others alternating the black with a colour (hence “colourburst”).

The stitches are very beginner-friendly, but the colour changes require some confidence. Throughout there are multiple tips and tricks on working with multiple colours at the same time, and making neat and seamless colourchanges.

I am using Double Knit cotton yarn, and suggest it, but any colours can be used. Of the black cotton yarn I used about 25g (50m). The colourbursts uses about 6m per colour only, so is great for using up leftover yarn from other projects in a useful way!
