Sweetspot Afghan - Free Knitting Pattern

Categories: Free Knitting Patterns   Afghans   scarves  
Duvekot on Knit One Below, I was inspired by the technique. When we worked on the 2 Koigu Kersti sweaters, a patterning of the colors occurred for both of us at a specific stitch count. I wondered if it worked with Kersti, would it work with KPPPM? So began my quest for what I named the sweetspot – where the right number of stitches and the k1b technique combine to create a very pleasing striping and shifting of the colors in the yarn. It separates the colors while allowing them to dance and play together. It gives an insight into the yarn designer's vision of the colorway and pays homage to that vision. The k1b technique is also wonderfully reversible – on the WS, you don’t see the vertical striping so the patterning in some of the more complex colorways comes through. This makes not only for an excellent afghan but also a scarf [see below].
