Champagne knit stitch instructions:
Cast on a multiple of 3 sts plus 1 extra sts and plus 2 selvage stitches. In my example 27 stitches.
Row1: sel s, knit all stitches, sel s.
Row 2: sel s, purl all stitches, sel s.
Repeat rows 1 and 2 once more if you want to get a wider distance between waves. If no, go on knitting 3d row.
Row 3: sel s, *p1, bring the yarn in front and slip next 2 stitches – repeat from *, p1 sel s.
Row 4: sel s, *p1, k2, – repeat from *, p1, sel s.
Repeat Rows 1-4 to form pattern.
