Pattern
CO 6 with Color A
Row 1: Kfb, k1, kfb, place marker, k to end. – {8 sts}
Row 2: Kfb, k to one st before marker, kfb, slip marker, k to end. – {10 sts}
Rows 3 & 4: With Color B, repeat Row 2.
Rows 5 & 6: With Color A, repeat Row 2.
Rows 7 – 98: Repeat Rows 3-6
Rows 99 & 100: With Color C, kfb, k to one st before marker, kfb, slip marker, k to end.
Row 101: Kfb, (k2tog, yo) until 2 sts before marker, k1, kfb, slip marker, k1, (yo, ssk) until 1 st remains, k last st.
If you have added or subtracted a kfb during the first 100 rows, it is possible your count will be off; if there is only 1 st left before the marker after a yo, then just kfb in that one, if there are 2 sts left at the end of the row after the last yo, then k both of them. There is no need to try to “fix” the count.
Row 102: Kfb, k to one st before marker, kfb, slip marker, k to end.
Rows 103 – 120: Repeat Rows 101 & 102 nine times.
Rows 121 – 148: With Color D, repeat Row 102
Rows 149-191: Repeat Rows 99-141
Bind off knit wise, fasten off and weave in all ends.
