Instructions:

Rows 1-9: K1, P1 across.
Row 10: K1, P1 for 88 (96, 104) sts, pm, K1, P1 for remaining sts. Note: you might want to make this marker a different color than all other markers you use because this marker will be used to differentiate between the left panel of colors and the right panel of colors. This marker will not be used as an increase marker and will be treated as invisible in the pattern from here on out, so just slip the marker when you come to it and know to change colors.
For all rows following until the end edging, work in the Color Pattern of the Left Panel and the Right Panel. The Right Panel should be worked first on the RS until the marker, then the Left Panel should be worked after the marker. Note that the color striping on the Left Panel and the Right Panel do not necessarily line up (that adds to the fun!)
