Originally published in Interweave Knits Magazine Spring 2023 as a chart only pattern, this design is now available as a row-by-row pattern for knitters that are not comfortable reading charts/graphs. The chart is still included as an option.

The yarn: two skeins of Great Southern Yarn SRS merino 4 ply/fingering, pictured in Mewish Iqbal (peach pink) and Cressida Campbell (blue).

The suggested gauge can be changed according to personal preference and a variety of yarns and needle sizes can be used to produce a different knitted fabric.
