This brand-new variant of Knit One Below is the easy way to get the brioche structure! Intarsia and self-striping yarns combine in a colorful mock-plaid fabric full of texture. There is no purling — each row simply alternates knit and knit one below stitches. Both sides are identical and the knit fabric lies flat, which is perfect for blankets and shawls.
