Mosaic 26: Parasols/Umbrellas

We’re back to the mosaic patterns from the book! This one is number 26, and Barbara entitles it ‘parasols’. I couldn’t decide whether to do the pattern as printed in the book, in which case the pattern would show up as right-side up umbrellas for the wearer, or if I should knit the pattern so that the umbrellas were right-side up for the viewer. I decided on this compromise, where one is right side up, and the other is upside down. I’m pleased with how they turned out, though many people didn’t seem sure when I was knitting them.

The blue yarn is Holiday Yarns Mittenacht, in flocksock, that I’ve used before, and the white is Knitpicks stroll glimmer.
