Description

Inspired by our “Infinite Stripes” pattern, we wondered what would two color-morphing cakes of “Blossoms” do if worked together from opposing ends. So, we took two cakes of the same colorway and knit stripes–two rows from one end of one cake, and two rows from the opposite end/color of the other cake. The result was lovely!

With a dramatically morphing cake–such as shown in “Zinnia”–even the center-most colors (which are very close to the same) are discernible. With a gradient cake–such as shown in “Globe Thistle” the shifts are very subtle and the center-most colors met and merged in the middle.

The pattern has the option for two sizes–a 10”/25cm wide version that will wrap three times around the neck, and a 12”/30cm wide version that wraps twice.

Started from a provisional cast-on and finished with a three-needle bind off, watch the colors interact as you go.

Alternately, you could use 2 different colorway cakes–and if you do, share photos!!!
