My main objective for this pattern was to create an unusual fabric with multiple color changes and interesting stitch variation, but with a traditional form. I have always been intrigued by the honeycomb stitch, but I needed to adapt it to appeal to any manly-man, dainty woman or finicky child: the Brickyard Stitch was the result. You can work it in any color choices; I really like it with a variegated or fast gradient yarn as Color B for the background, with a strongly-contrasting Color A as the ‘bricks.’
