Red, White & Black Graduated Stripe Border Knit | NYC

One red stripe changes everything.

This striking knit features graduated black and white stripes with one bold streak of red running through the design. The varying widths of the stripes give the fabric movement and visual interest, while that unexpected pop of red takes it somewhere completely different.

I purchased this fabric in the New York City Fabric District, and with only 1 5/8 yards available, this is definitely a piece that invites a little creativity.

How would you use the print? Would you position the red stripe near the hem? Across the bodice? Let it travel diagonally? Or completely change the orientation of the fabric?

Put your own special touch on it.
