Description

From the book: "More than any other pattern, this one typifies Aran knitting. It is pure, classic Aran: a fully developed design, symmetrical, clean, and refined by generations down to a deceptive simplicity. Sometimes it is worked on a panel of 15 stitches, with the borders of the diamonds made of two knit stitches instead of one."
