Inverse Squares Design

The inverse squares pattern adds visual interest by playing with negative and positive space. Alternating blocks of color or texture create a striking geometric effect that’s both modern and timeless.

  • Bold Contrasts: Pair bright, contrasting colors like navy and yellow or teal and coral for a statement piece.
  • Ombre Gradient: Create a gradient effect by transitioning colors across the squares.
  • Textured Yarn: Experiment with textured or metallic yarns to add dimension and shine.

Adding a decorative border, such as a scalloped or picot edge, can further elevate the design.
