My favourite kind of project? One that looks fabulous but knits up easily.

Knit on the bias, you’ll get maximum impact from a mini skein and a few garter ridges. There are 3 single stripes and 2 double stripes in the contrast colour, giving you a slightly different look on each side. Instructions are given for a three-needle bind off and for grafting so that you can choose the method you’re most comfortable with.

Easy to modify and make your own.
