Two-coloured Tuck Stitch
For a trimming at the top of the sleeve we are going to knit a two-coloured
tuck stitch pattern.
Change to the trimming colour and knit two rows.
Push every 4th needle to Rest
Position* * * * using the black pattern
ruler.
Knit four rows main colour.
Push the needles back from Rest
P osition**** to Advanced Working
Position***.
(Be careful not to push the needles
further back than indicated.)
Push the centre needle of the three
needles in Working Position* to Rest
P osition****.
Knit four rows trimming colour.
Push the needles which are in Rest
Position * * * * to Advanced Working
Position***.
Repeat the arrangement of the needles (ill. 73, 74) three times more thereby knitting the four rows alternately with the
main colour and the trimming colour.
Push all needles to Advanced Working Position * * * and knit two rows trimming colour.

The chart for this pattern reads as follows:
Every empty square represents a needle in Working Position* *.
Every square with across represents a needle in Rest P osition****.
Every row of squares represents a knitted row.
The colour is changed every fourth row; in this example you have started with
the main colour. (Usually, one begins with the trimming colour.)
When you knit according to a chart, always begin with the bottom row of
squares.
