This is a great little project for learning the basics of brioche, and worked in washable wool, it’s really useful, too. I used about twice as much of the main color as the secondary, but you can stripe or leave solid as you like.

This pattern was on About.com (which no longer exists) and has been deleted from their site, but for now it can still be found on the Internet Archive. They redirect and delete pages a lot so you may want to download/print to save.
