The inspiration for Leading Lines comes from the concept that both man-made and natural lines can be used to draw the viewers’ eyes around a given picture/scene. The technique is often used by photographers, but it is also used by the wider artistic community.

Leading Lines are worked in the round, from the cuff down. The stitch pattern is a simple but effective use of twisted rib that features two rows that use LPT and RPT immediately before and after the thumb gusset.
