Embossed Bell Motif

Sample knit on US Size 6 needles - Patons Classic Wool that I dyed myself

You can space the bells any way you like; in my sample I worked with 18 stitches, and knit the first 6, made a bell, knit 6, made another bell, then knit the last 6.

SKP = Slip next st purlwise, knit 1, pass the slipped stitch over
K = Knit
P = Purl
K2tog = Knit 2 together
P2tog = Purl 2 together

Motif is worked on six stitches, on  a reverse stocking stitch background

Row 1: (RS) P to bell position, cast on 6 for the bell, P to end
Row 2 and all WS Rows: K background sts, P bell sts
Row 3: P background sts, K bell sts, P to end
Row 5: P background sts, when  you reach the bell sts: SKP, K2, K2tog, P to end
Row 7: P background sts, when you reach the bell sts: SKP, K2tog, P to end
Row 9: P background sts, when you reach the bell sts: K2tog, P to end
Row 11: P background sts, when you reach the last bell st, purl it together with next st on left needle, P to end
Row 12: K

Repeat these 12 rows for the pattern
