From the Pattern: Add regular increases and decreases to a stripe pattern knitted in stockinette stitch and create an attractive chevron pattern. Incorporate a different yarn texture such as mohair or a velvet-finish yarn to make softer, less distinct stripes.

Pattern repeat: This pattern is worked in a multiple of 16 stitches plus 2.

Notes on gauge: As with all of the stitch patterns in this book, the gauge is flexible depending on your yarn and needle or hook.
