2020.1.124Description
From the book: "This is a simple pattern based on Basket Stitch. The pattern is elongated laterally, so that it gives the illusion of belts of contrasting color woven through a knitted fabric just as ribbons are sometimes woven through a series of eyelets. This pattern can be used very effectively in isolated areas of a garment as trimming, such as near the edges of collars, cuffs, and hem."Collection
