With 4 row repeats, this stitch pattern can take on several different looks depending on where you choose to change colors.
The written stitch instructions are for working the pattern in a solid color of yarn. To make it easier to see the stitch placement in the photos, we used 2 colors and switched them every row. We hope you enjoy the stitch and have fun playing with colors for a variety of design effects!
