Have you discovered Shadow knitting yet? It’s a lot of fun and makes for some interesting discussions with folks who see your project.
When viewed from the “normal” straight down angle, your knitting looks like a colorful ribbing project. You can u
se any colors you wish, but contrasting colors work best. Alternating colors every 2 rows.
The fun comes in when you change the angle of view. Looking at a 45 degree angle at your project, and you’ll discover some clever knitting and purling!
There is a great little book with plenty of patterns in this interesting style of knitting. It’s called Shadow Knitting by Vivian Hoxbro. The book contains very nice detailed patterns for winged shawls, squared bags, a matching cap and scarf, vests, sweaters, and Japanese-style kimonos. $14.93 on Amazon.
