Comments: Normally, alternating colour stripes require all kinds of fancy fair-isle. This approach is so much easier! :) The white stripes are much wider than the burgundy ones - I'm not sure if that's the yarn's fault, or if its due to how tight I pulled the yarn as I slipped the stitches - it blocked fairly flat, so I think its the yarn's doing.
