    How to knit a cute two-row repeat lace stitch + video

    July 30, 2022 /

    In today’s post, you’ll learn how to knit an easy two-row repeat lace pattern, one of those so-called “proper lace” stitches. As such, they are lace patterns because the increases and decreases are worked on in each row. Whereas Openwork stitch patterns are normally worked purling the even rows of the desired design. So the lace patterns require “more work” according to some, as the even rows or “resting” rows also need our attention, or… “it’s complicated” 😉 Complicated, no, not really… this two-row repeat lace stitch is actually easy to do! Actually, the steps that we have to repeat are the easiest ones when it comes to knitting lace.…

    How to knit the Fisherman’s Rib stitch in the round

    July 22, 2022 /

    The Fisherman’s Rib stitch worked in the round is a similar and easier knitting pattern than the Brioche stitch. Basically, it’s a traditional two-row repeat pattern, great for hats, and cowls without seaming. Actually, in a previous tutorial, I’ve shown not only how to knit and properly bind off the classic Fisherman’s Rib stitch (flat or back and forth)… But also, another version dedicated to those knitters that are not fans of purling 😉 And by that, I mean that you can knit and bind off the Fisherman’s Rib using knit stitches only… YAY! However, I’ve received many requests to make a tutorial teaching how to do it using circular…

    How to knit the Horizontal Welts stitch (reversible)

    July 13, 2022 /

    In today’s post, I’m sharing how to knit the Horizontal Welts stitch, another pattern ideal for beginners 🙂 Actually, it’s the perfect knit stitch for hats. Why? Basically, you don’t need to keep track of the stitch count… to make the decreases! By using this stitch, you can knit hats in several sizes, following any pattern you have on hand, and decrease when it’s needed (no calculations required)… YEAP! This is because each row will be knitted or purled entirely; there are no repetitions of different kinds of stitches. Furthermore, the Horizontal Welts stitch is a six-row repeat pattern, pretty easy to do (your only mission is to be aware…

    How to knit Easy Lace Stripes: A one-row repeat reversible pattern

    July 8, 2022 /

    In this post, I’m sharing how to knit Easy Lace Stripes: A one-row repeat reversible pattern, super easy to knit. If you want to learn how to knit lace, this is the perfect pattern! Just work on three simple steps that will be repeated throughout the project 😉 And the good news is that you don’t even have to purl! In fact, the only techniques required are knit stitches, yarn over, and knit two stitches together (the easiest increase and decrease there are out there ;). As per The Witch’s Ladder stitch that we practiced a couple of weeks ago, the Easy Lace Stripes is a proper lace pattern because…

    How to knit the Double Garter Rib stitch (only two rows)

    July 1, 2022 /

    In today’s tutorial, I’m sharing how to knit the Double Garter Rib stitch, step by step. Honestly, I think it’s a perfect stitch for borders or edges; especially when we don’t need them to be stretchy (as they would be when using the classic 2 x 2 Ribbing). For instance, use it on each side of a blanket, of a scarf, or on each side of an infinite cowl in case you used a stitch that curls or bends. In other words, it’s a substitute for the Seed stitch, Garter stitch, or the Irish Moss stitch. However, the Double Garter Rib is a pretty versatile pattern. It will also work…
