This top is assembled with five panels (two for the Back and three for the Front). You work a first panel then work the subsequent panels connecting to the previous panel as you go. The method of joining makes a cable-like texture and adds great character to the top.
Using two colors shows off the cable textures, and it makes a unique and original top. If you prefer, working with just one color also makes a beautifully textured top. The sample is shown in Black Natural/Ecru Natural.
