This is a pretty simple pattern which looks quite elegant. I’d rank it perhaps advanced beginner; it’s not difficult at all. The most complicated part is that it uses three different hook sizes.
worsted weight yarn in two colors: 1 skein A & small amount B (I used white & black Caron Simply Soft)
5.5mm hook
5 mm hook
4.5 mm hook
5 1/2? (12 mm) buttons
stitch markers
