Only one color is used each row, and slipped stitches form the patterning. There is no shaping during the mosaic sections making it easy to focus on the intriguing diamonds appearing across your knitting. Self-striping Adore Colors adds further interest to the colorwork. And once the mosaic section is done, the self-striping yarn still looks fantastic all on its own in stockinette stitch. This project is knit flat in pieces from the bottom up. After the body is seamed, stitches are picked up around the front opening for the Neck Edging.
