I love the slip stitch pattern in this sweater! I used a darker yarn as the background, to make the foreground really stand out. The square neckline looks great on anyone, and it complements the geometric nature of the stitch pattern. You can work the sweater up in the short sleeve version shown below, or opt for long sleeves instead. The stitch pattern is a mosaic pattern. You only ever work with one color at a time, slipping the stitches that you will work in the other color on the following two rows.

The stitch pattern is presented in written format.
