Ready for a challenge? Let’s have some fun trying a bottom-up bias construction together with a colorwork mosaic pattern. The charted instructions, together with the written pattern will make an enjoyable and straightforward knit.

The garment is worked flat in diagonal stripes with mosaic colorwork in the front, while leaving a monochrome texture in the back. Collar, hem and armbands are finished in the round with a garter st ribbing.
