Judging from her markings, there will be only two kinds of "reveals", the wide white stripe and the yellow stripe with its accompanying gray stripes. The "sett" at the hip line will have a much-abbreviated blue field.

Also, since the yellow stripe panel will not have much blue background to begin with, virtually all of the tapering will likely take place on the white stripe panel (every second panel) to prevent "losing" gray stripes.

Hmmm... thinking about it. If the "losing" of gray stripes in the tapers was done with exactness, there could be a very interesting pattern of upward-pointing arrows.
