Two colours, welting (x2), double rows

This uses welting (x2) and two colours.

The colours are used in pairs of rows, like the stocking stitch pattern. But the rows are knitted as described below.

I have not done a left-handed version of this. If you are left-handed, imagine the pictures as after you have turned the knitting round, to start the next row.

Here is how to introduce each ball of wool. As it is welting, two rows use knit, then the next two use purl (regardless of which colour is used).

Make sure that you don't get the wool of the different colours muddled up! They are rather apt to get twisted round each other if you aren't careful.

There isn't really an obvious right and wrong side here. Instead, the front is mostly one colour, and the back, the other colour.
