Modulator 2 is worked up in two richly textured parts: a garter stitch base and a brioche rib section. It’s got a really nice cozy feel to the fabric, and when you knit it in two colors, the effect is bold. It’s functionally reversible—the reverse side is almost identical to the front, and the transition between sections looks really nice on both.

(You’d get a good but more understated result in one color, and remarkably, this ends up knitting up in under a skein of the yarn used. I really didn’t think it would.)
