Striping:

The Wave

Here's a popular lawn pattern that's fun and easy if you have a Simplicity mower. It's called the Wave. Start by mowing a straight line down the center of your lawn, then mow your first wiggly line using the straight line as a guide. Be sure not to make the curves too close together, or they'll be hard to duplicate as you mow further out. When you come back alongside the first line, you'll erase any trace of the straight line that you made when you first started. And don't worry if your later lines don't match your previous ones perfectly—people will just think it's part of your design. Finish with a cleanup pass that will hide your turn marks and neatly frame in your design, and then stand back and wait for your neighbor's compliments. And remember, Simplicity's pivoting, free-floating mower decks with full-width rollers not only make beautiful patterns, they always give a beautiful cut too, because Simplicity is The Way to a Beautiful Lawn.
