Modular Knitting - Or - Strip Knitting For Portability

 

I decided to knit a sweater out of some Red Heart Variegated yarn for my daughter.  But I didn't like the way the colors were forming argyle patterns.  I wanted it to stripe - so - I took the pattern and divided it into 6 sections for the back, 3 sections for the fronts, and 4 sections for each sleeve, I added 2 sts for each strip for seaming.  Once I had my gauge from my initial swatch I was able to do the calculations easily and this is the results.
