Comments

I really enjoy these slipped/striped mosaic pieces.

They knit up quickly, easily, and give a great colorful effect with only a single color at a time worked.

I love the slight bending of the stripes and op art effect: When viewed from different angles you see more of the slip’s wave effect and the ‘bend’ becomes more apparent. This can also be accentuated by working at tighter gauges.
