Teaching myself one new knit stitch a week, from the Complete Guide to Needlework book, c. 1979.
I cast on 12 stitches in Yarn Bee Andes Alpaca in Peacock, size 8 needles.
Row 1: K1, *yo, K 2 tog*, K1
Rows 2 and 4: purl
Row 3: K2, *yo, K 2 tog*

The wrong side makes a pretty pattern - I like both sides equally, I think:
