From Russia with Wool ...
This pattern is available individually or as part of the From Russia with Wool collection (available at the moment for the special introductory price of only 5 euros - a considerable saving over the individual price of each pattern - please decide before purchasing as refunds cannot be issued for individual patterns against the cost of the collection).
This is colourwork you can do without reading a chart - everything is explained in text: but a chart is provided as a visual reference for those who like charts.
Russian stitch = very easy colourwork (you only work with one colour at a time and slip the stitches in the other colour).
Knit with 2 solids or 2 semi-solids, or pick a self-striping or variegated yarn for the CC to jazz things up a bit.
There can be one difference between the weights, making it a
good stashbusting pattern - use the DK for the MC, but use leftover or hibernating fingering/sock yarn for the CC.
Single loop: allow at least 100m/110 yds of EACH yarn.
Double loop: allow at least 200m/220 yds. of EACH yarn.
Many thanks to the testers for their enthusiasm and stunning knits:
