Notes

CO 66. Each color is 4 rows, and each 2-color block has 4 sets of each color, so 32 rows per block. I did 12 blocks total. Final length is 57”. I used mainly worsted/heavy worsted and aran weights.

This project was a lot of fun! Changing color schemes really kept me interested and therefore finished the project much faster than I normally would. I enjoyed using up some of my stash.

I used the jogless technique for row color changes. I didn’t find the purl stitches at beginning and halfway points in the rows to be helpful enough at flattening it out, although it’s not a big deal to have them included. I would leave these out and do a regular knit stitch all around next time.
