Mosaic Knitting
Mosaic knitting is a colorwork technique where patterns form by slipping stitches in a contrasting color, using only one color per round.
Explanation
Mosaic knitting, popularized by designers like Barbara Walker, creates multicolor patterns without ever knitting two colors in the same round. Instead, you knit two rounds in one color, slipping certain stitches in the other color (from the previous round) rather than knitting them. This makes the technique easier than Fair Isle for many knitters, since you never hold two strands at once, but it requires carefully tracking which stitches to knit and which to slip in each round.
