I'm liking this new project.The idea came from a Rowan pattern called ribbed check. Looking in the Barbara Walker books, the pattern is found in Volume 2 and called the color seeded pattern. In any event, it is effectively seed stitch but slip every fourth stitch when working the color bands.
Another great idea for an oddball project that does not look like an oddball at all.
Only downside is all the ends. I'm trying to work them in on the current sleeve as I go. This should reduce the weaving in process by about half.
So, this sleeve was done before I left on holiday. The other is about the half way mark.
Enjoy Thanksgiving. More progress next week.
