This pattern, as always, is an easy, soothing knit. The Malabrigo Merino Worsted made it especially enjoyable - it is so soft and beautiful.

Here is the pattern written out:

CO 39 sts

Work in K1, P1 rib, alternating colors every two rows slipping first and last stitch of every even numbered row purlwise.

Row 1: K1, P1 to last stitch which is a knit stitch
Row 2: Slip one purlwise, K1, P1 to last stitch, slip purlwise.

Run the two yarn colors up the side of the piece. Cross the new color over the old color as you change at the end of Row 2.
