Leading Lines
I designed Leading Lines to be an approachable, relaxed knit with a bold end result. By using two contrasting colors of yarn and simple knit and purl stitches, lines are formed to create an eye-catching look. This pattern also includes two brim options—one with garter stitch using two colorways and another with ribbing using a single colorway—so you can choose what you like best! The inspiration behind this design comes from the compositional technique in photography in which visual lines are used to draw attention to the image’s main subject. When it comes to knitting, your work is the focus, and all eyes will be on you when you wear your Leading Lines.
Materials Needed:
Yarn
Approximately 160 yds (147 m) total of worsted weight yarn in two contrasting colors. If your gauge is different than what is called for in the pattern, yardage will vary. Substitute yarn yardage also may vary.
