Another simple to knit but complex looking design. No one needs to know how easy it is other than you though, especially if you knit this as a gift.

The stitches are simple because they use the mosaic stitch method of colourwork. You will be working with only one colour at a time in each round. Easy peasy even if you are new to this type of knitting.This pattern is written out in full row-by-row and does not use charts.

You can easily substitute with any worsted that will give a suitable gauge.
