After test knitting the original version, I will be casting on the new Clue 1 as soon as my yarn arrives.

Will post yardage for each section like before.

Mods for Clue 1:

• Modified the row count per stripe to accommodate 9 stripes instead of 10, so I could start in the center and end at the border with Color D.
• Alternated between stripes of garter stitch, and stocking stitch.
• Used yarn overs for the increases instead of M1R and M1L.

Stripe 1 (center square) - 10 rnds of garter stitch in D
Stripe 2 - 8 rnds of stocking stitch in A
Stripe 3 - 10 rnds of garter stitch in B
Stripe 4 - 8 rnds of stocking stitch in C
Stripe 5 - 10 rnds of garter stitch in D
Stripe 6 - 8 rnds of stocking stitch in A
Stripe 7 - 10 rnds of garter stitch in B
Stripe 8 - 8 rnds of sticking stitch in C
Stripe 9 - 10 rnds of garter stitch in D
(Don’t forget to add in the extra sts in the second last round of the final stripe using a m1 as per the pattern. I did my yo, then k1, then did the m1.)
