Mix and Match
One approach to mixingstitch patterns is to settle
on a couple of main
patterns you like and
then knit a swatch of
each using one or two
yarns in common. Then
select a pattern with a
shorter row repeat and
select a yarn in common
to one of the main motifs
and a contrasting yarn.
The swatch (right)has
been worked using three
stitch patterns; two are
repeated.
