    How to knit an easy two-row repeat lace stitch

    February 26, 2023 /

    Today, I’m sharing how to knit a super easy two-row repeat lace stitch pattern (easier than the last one we practiced…guaranteed!). Honestly, if you haven’t started to knit lace yet, or you have but still don’t feel comfortable, try this one! My suggestion? Begin with a small swatch and gain confidence as you go. It has a nice texture to it, and its vertical design makes it perfect for Spring-Summer garments, such as shawls, throws, or a jacket made out of cotton yarn, bamboo, linen (or its blends). However, when knitted in wool yarn, Alpaca, Cashmere, etc., this two-row repeat lace stitch will work beautifully in an Autumn-Winter scarf or…

    How to knit the Checkered Rib stitch pattern

    February 22, 2023 /

    In this post you’ll learn how to knit the Checkered Rib stitch; a lovely knit and purl pattern. It reminds me of the Tweed stitch with knits and purls only that we practiced sometime ago. Actually it has the look of tartan fabric in a single color, and it will work with both, wool or cotton yarn (or their blends). Although both sides look a little bit different, they are practically the same (very pretty indeed) so to me, this is a reversible stitch. Honestly, I like the “wrong side” more 😉 In addition, the Checkered Rib is a four-row repeat pattern, easy to do, and easy to memorize (there…

    Knit stitch patterns and video tutorials in the round

    February 18, 2023 /

    In this post, I’m sharing various knit stitch patterns in the round, including written instructions and video tutorials. In fact, I posted some of them over the last few weeks, others were published in previous years. However, I wanted to have all of them in one place, so here you go: Rib stitch “without purling” in the round This is a two-row repeat pattern, and although its name refers to “without purling”, the truth is that when knitted in the round, we do have to purl. Actually, I realized that when converting it to circulars; when worked flat, this Rib stitch doesn’t require purls. Things happen when we change a…

    How to knit the Chained Cast on

    February 12, 2023 /

    In today’s tutorial, you’ll learn how to knit the chained cast-on, another way to start your knitting projects! Although I normally use the long tail cast-on or the knitted cast-on, it’s my favorite cast-on method when knitting in the round. It gives a touch of elegance to the edge of the hat, gloves, or sweater. Additionally, it’s pretty stretchy! The chained cast-on is not only adorable but really simple, the only extra thing you’ll need is a crochet hook. Not to worry though, you don’t need to be an expert in crochet… I’m not either! So, it’s time to learn this new technique. Grab your needles, a crochet hook, and…
