Product Details
The Green Man illusion knit is approximately 60 cm (24 inches) square, when knitted using DK yarn and 3mm needles, and has been designed to be viewed from the side. It was originally intended to be a wall hanging but could, just as well, form the centre for a bedspread or throw or even the centre back of a shawl.
Illusion knitting is very easy. Only one colour is used on each row. When you look straight at the knitting you see only stripes. The image is revealed when you look from an angle.
I used Stylecraft Special DK in Dark Brown and Meadow (one ball of each). Any thickness of yarn can be used though your finished piece may be a different size.
The pattern includes a version of the chart specially designed for mobile devices.
