2020.1.145Description
From the book: "While this pattern is identical in technique to Simple Check Pattern, the constant alternation of three different strands of color gives it a most unusual appearance. Worked in three strongly contrasting, bright colors, it is gay and brilliant; worked in three colors that are close together in hue or tone, it is a subtle mixture."Collection
