This is an intarsia sweater with embellishments designed for the mid-gauge machine. Sample was knit on an Artisan but any mid-gauge or Bond can match the gauge. 2 strands of Yeoman's Panama in slightly different colors are knitted together to create the ripples in the water. A ribber is useful but not essential because the small amount or ribbing can be achieved by reforming stitches.
