    How to knit a Sweater made to measure

    January 29, 2023 /

    In this tutorial, you will learn how to knit a Sweater, with straight needles, and tailored exactly to your measurements. However, it’s a very easy and flexible pattern: You can do it in a single color, with a sleeve length that you prefer, and using a stitch pattern that you love (my sweater has 3/4 length sleeves, but in the video tutorial I’ll show you how to do long sleeves too). It’s an à la carte basic sweater that’s also suitable for beginners. If you haven’t made a sweater yet, this project is ideal for you. Actually, the only techniques required are Knit and Purl stitches, and how to bind…

    How to knit the Pique Rib stitch 2 (pay attention to your tension)

    January 25, 2023 /

    Today, I’m sharing how to knit the Pique Rib stitch 2; a four-row repeat pattern, super easy to do, and it doesn’t curl. In fact, it’s another lovely knit and purl stitch pattern, perfect for beginners. Although it shares the same DNA as the Pique Rib stitch we practiced a while ago, it’s less detailed… let’s say it’s a little less busy 😉 So it’s a nice option for a sweater or cardigan, for example. Having said that, it’s also a great pattern for a blanket, a scarf, a hat, or even a cushion, table mats, or table runners… it’s up to you! Besides, it’s not a reversible stitch, yet…

    How to Knit a 2×2 Rib Stitch without Purling (2-row-repeat)

    January 21, 2023 /

    Strange but true, it is possible to knit the Rib stitch without purling 🙂 It’s also possible to knit the Fisherman’s Rib without purling… YAY! And in this tutorial, free, gratis, and for no money down, I’ll show you how. By now you’re asking yourself what’s with all the enthusiasm? Well, it’s no secret that for many of us knitters, the purl stitch is somewhat of a “necessary evil”. Let’s just say that the purl stitch goes against the natural hand movement that we all learned from day one when we first started knitting. Clearly, we have to use it, because, without it, we couldn’t create so many marvelous patterns,…

    How to knit the Sailor’s Rib stitch pattern (only 4 rows!)

    January 17, 2023 /

    Today, you’ll learn how to knit the Sailor’s Rib stitch; a textured pattern, full of advantages for us knitters (similar yet more detailed than the Little Boxes stitch we practiced years ago). Firstly, it’s a super easy four-row repeat pattern, which combines only knit and purl stitches, great for beginners (no need to increase or decrease at all). Secondly, although both sides are different, I’d say that the Sailor’s Rib stitch is a reversible knitting pattern. Why? Well, the so-called “wrong side” of the work looks pretty too, so it’s a nice option for scarves, throws, blankets, etc. Last but not least, it doesn’t curl or bend. The fabric lays…
