Double Vision

Double Vision is a stunning afghan. It appears to have 55 different shades though it only uses 10 ordinary, easily available colours.

The afghan in the photos was made in DK (Double Knitting) yarns. In theory, you can use any yarn of your choice but, in reality, yarns heavier than DK would make the afghan uncomfortably heavy. You could make a floor rug instead, if you wish to use heavier yarns.

We once exhibited Double Vision in a chapel, between two stained glass windows. It outshone the windows!

It is not a conventional knitting pattern. If you can knit garter stitch you can make this. You do not have to be able to follow a normal knitting pattern as the instructions are in simple words. It is suitable for beginners and experienced knitters. You do not have to work to a particular gauge.

The PDF includes a sheet where you can keep track of your own colourways before you begin.
