PATTERN NOTES

1ch at beg of rnd does not count

as st.

3ch at beg of rnd counts as 1tr or

raised tr unless otherwise stated.

The contrast rib brioche is made

by working along each row twice,

once with the fi rst colour and

again with the contrast colour.

The pattern works the rows in two

parts for every double coloured

row – keep an eye on this for

instructions on how to work it.

All rows are raised front stitches

on RS, so work raised back

stitches on reverse of fabric.
