The pattern has three options for the this section so you can knit a short mosaic section as shown in the pattern picture or you can knit a much longer section which is great for lighter weight yarns. Advice s given in the pattern as to which is best for the different yarn choices.

The pattern has full written instructions and additional charts for the mosaic section.
