The Journey
The key to happy knitting is for the journey to be as important to you as the destination.
It employs mosaic knitting, so the slipped stitches make it double layered. So it is very warm.
Mosaic knitting colorwork is very easy.
I recommend that you use two colors of yarn that have a lot of contrast. Two solids, or one solid and a variegate/tonal work wonderfully. Just make sure they have a great deal of contrast.
Sizing: Baby (Toddler, Child, Adult S, Adult M, Adult L).
Yarn: 80-180 yds worsted/aran weight yarn in two contrasting colors.
Knitting needle: US 8/5.0 mm
(You can use dpns, or one long circulars for magic loop or 2 circular
needles.)
Gauge: 5 stitches/inch in stockinette stitch.
Baby fits 13-15 inches
Toddler fits 14-16 inches
Child fits 15-17 inches
Adult Small fits 16-18 inches
Medium fits 18-20 inches
Large fits 19-21 inches
