From the book: "This pattern is really a simplified version of Chevron Fantastic. Having the unobtrusive, trim, tailored look of the true herringbone weave, it is a very good pattern for suits and coats."Collection

Sally has been knitting for over 40 years! She learned to knit from her host mother while in Germany as an exchange student. She has all of Barbara Walker’s Treasuries and loves to spend time dreaming of designs and trying new stitch patterns -- she actually designed a scarf with one of them! This was her first time trying this particular pattern, though, and she enjoyed making it!Lexicon
