Description

From the book: "This charming three-color version of 'Bricks' is done with elongated slip-stitches. Since the slipped stitches must be carried up for six rows, they are loosened by making extra turns around the needle at the base of the stitch. When thus elongated, the slipped stitches will not deform the horizontal rows to which they are attached."

Susan learned to knit at the age of 26. She enjoys knitting patterns that challenge her knitting brain and push her to learn new skills. While knitting this swatch she listened to a playlist she created made of songs with the word 'blue' somewhere in them. She enjoys knitting while listening to audiobooks and primarily knits for herself, friends and family.
