How to Knit a No-Purling Reversible Stitch + Video (2 rows!)

Today, you’ll learn how to knit a No-Purling Reversible stitch, that doesn’t curl!

It’s a two-row repeat pattern, and it looks pretty on both sides.

Although they are different, both look lovely (this is why to me, it’s a reversible pattern).

It has an adorable texture to it, and you can use it for scarves, infinite cowls, hats, and even sweaters, cardigans, and blankets.

Finally, it’s a no-purling pattern, so I dedicate it to those who prefer the knit stitch.

And I’ll show you how to make it in English and Continental styles 😉

Without further ado, grab your needles, the fiber of your preference, and let’s get started!

By the way, I knitted two swatches:

One using 100% Merino Wool Superwash yarn (worsted weight, number 4, or medium) #ad

The other one, using 100% Cotton Yarn (worsted weight, number 4, or medium) #ad

Both were made with US 8 / 5 mm needles #ad

No-Purling 2 Row-Repeat Knitting Pattern

CO an even number of stitches.

Row 1 (WS): *wyif sl1kw, K1*. Repeat from * to *, to end

Row 2 (RS): wyif sl1pw, wyib k2togtbl, *K1, k2togtbl*. Repeat from * to *, to end.

These two rows create the pattern.

Repeat them until the desired length is reached.

When finished, BO after row 1 (facing the RS).

In the video tutorial, I’ll show you how to bind off.
