Notes

Can’t stop knitting these, especially as two are now living elsewhere and one is showing signs of wear….

Possibly inspired by Marimekko. I like mine better, though…

Because I cannot count, apparently, the ssk is 10 stitches more to the left than as per pattern. However, the overall width is the same.

This results in a 20 rows shorter CC colour section just before bindoff.

Lenghtened 4-row stripes to 132.
Lenghtened 2-row stripes to 24.

3mm cubic needles
Icord bindoff on 2.5mm cubics
