    How to knit a Fancy Lace stitch (4 rows only!)

    September 30, 2023 /

    In this tutorial, you’ll learn how to knit a lovely Fancy Lace stitch. It has a romantic, vintage look, perfect for shawls, wraps, scarves, and even seasonal cardigans and sweaters. However, if your garment should stay flat, add a nice edge on each side of the piece, or block it once it’s finished. The Fancy Lace stitch is a four-row repeat pattern, and to me, a great opportunity to practice and improve several techniques. In fact, we’ll be doing the single and double yarn over, the simple decrease, knitting three stitches together, and knitting two stitches together. In addition, in the video tutorial, I’ll explain how to purl and knit…

    How to Knit an I-Cord and The I-Cord Cast-On Method

    September 27, 2023 /

    In this post, I’m sharing how to knit an i-cord, and how to use it to do the i-cord cast-on method. Actually, in a previous tutorial, I shared how to knit an I-Cord Edge as you go, for the sides of a garment. The i-cord is a tube made out of three stitches, which can be used to make ties for booties, and hats, or for example to make the handles of a bag. In addition, an i-cord can be used to make the stems or stalks of a pumpkin or pumpkin hat. Besides, you can use it to make the cast-on edge, to create a pretty, steady, and round…

    How to knit the Bubble Rib stitch (4 rows only!)

    September 23, 2023 /

    Today, I’m sharing how to knit the Bubblelicious Rib stitch, step by step. It’s a four-row repeat pattern, easy and fun to knit (because if you can knit and purl, I’m sure you can do it :). In fact, the other techniques required are the yarn over (before a knit stitch and a purl stitch, which are different, so I’m explaining how to do both of them in the video tutorial). And how to purl three stitches together. That’s it! Besides, the Bubble Rib stitch has a lovely texture to it, adding a little more volume to the fabric. I think it’s the perfect pattern for baby stuff, yet it…

    How to knit an adorable Two-Color Lattice stitch pattern

    September 20, 2023 /

    In this tutorial, I’ll show you how to knit with two colors; we’ll learn how to knit a gorgeous two-color Lattice stitch. It’s an eight-row repeat pattern, and surprisingly, much easier to do than it looks (I always thought it was complicated)… Honestly, for years I have been wanting to do it, but I don’t know why, I never put my mind to it. So, today is the day!  Before we start, I’d like to give you a couple of tips when knitting with colors: Firstly, use contrasting colors, especially if you are a beginner. This will help you to see where you are pretty quickly. Secondly, try to work…

    How to knit an I-Cord Edge 3 ways!

    September 16, 2023 /

    Today, you’ll learn how to knit an i-cord (not an Apple product… yet ; ) edge 3 ways… It’s a super easy yet useful technique, which will give a special finish to our projects. The good news is that an i-cord edge has different uses: Firstly, it’s especially helpful, when knitting a piece in Stockinette stitch, to prevent it from curling (in the video tutorial I’m showing how to do it for both, at the beginning and at the end of a row). Secondly, it’s perfect for the front pieces of a cardigan; it will give more firmness to the button band. Thirdly, the i-cord edge is also suitable when…

    How to knit the Rose stitch pattern (4 rows only!)

    September 13, 2023 /

    Today, you’ll learn how to knit the Rose stitch (I’m not sure, but I think it’s one of the Shetland Lace patterns). It’s a four-row repeat pattern, it has a lovely texture to it, and it’s easier than it looks 😉 I decided to knit a swatch using a blend of cotton yarn and polyester, light and smooth, just to show you how versatile the Rose stitch is… #ad Actually, it will also work for A/W projects: Use Mohair, Cashmere, Alpaca, wool yarn, or its blends, and the result will be a cozy and warm garment. Moreover, this pattern will look great not only on a scarf, or a shawl,…

    How to knit the Chestnut stitch (4 rows only!)

    September 9, 2023 /

    In this post, I’m sharing how to knit the Chestnut stitch, similar to the Hazelnut stitch which we practiced a while ago. Although it doesn’t create too much volume, it has a pretty texture to it, featuring little eyelets. It’s a four-row repeat pattern, easy to do, and fun to knit. In fact, the only techniques required are knit, purl, yarn over, slip one stitch, and pass the stitch over. The Chestnut stitch pattern is a great option for a wide range of projects: From shawls and throws, to cardigans or sweaters. Nevertheless, if your choice is to knit a scarf, a wrap, or any other garment that should stay…

    How to knit the Stag Horn Cable stitch pattern

    September 6, 2023 /

    Today, I’m sharing how to knit the Stag Horn Cable stitch, another classic of the knitting world. It’s a six-row repeat pattern, easy and fun to knit, and great for a central panel of ponchos, sweaters, or even the sleeves of a sweater or cardigan. However, cable patterns are also great for hats, scarves, mittens, and socks, and they look better on a Reverse Stockinette stitch background 🙂 Please take into account that we’ll need a “cable needle”; a third needle of the same size, or a stitch holder, #ad, or hair pin (Bobby pin) in order to cross the stitches. In summary, use whatever is easier for you (I…
