    How to Knit the No-Purling Hurdle Stitch + Video

    February 1, 2025 /

    In this tutorial, you’ll learn how to knit the No-Purling Hurdle Stitch in 1 and 2 colors. I always thought that there was only one Hurdle Stitch, and I shared it with you a while ago. Although that version is pretty popular (it’s a classic in the knitting world), it’s a knit + purl pattern. Recently, I came across this variant, for those moments when we don’t want to purl 😉 It’s a four-row repeat pattern, easy to knit, and you can mix 2 colors of your preference, or decide to make it in just one color. The No-Purling Hurdle Stitch has a lovely texture to it (kind of vintage),…

    An Alternative to the Stockinette that Knitters Should Know

    January 18, 2025 /

    Today, I’m sharing an alternative to the Stockinette (Stocking) stitch we knitters should know. Why? The answer is pretty simple: Because it’s nice to have options! We all love the Stockinette stitch, but maybe, 2 main reasons make us think of an alternative: 1) It curls! Yep, the classic Stockinette stitch doesn’t lay flat, no matter what you do. Of course, you can always block the garment… 2) It could be a bit boring if you have to knit a big piece. I know sometimes you want to knit and watch your favorite TV show, so it’s better to be free of counting or paying attention to your knit work.…

    December 28, 2024 /

    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…

    December 14, 2024 /

    Today, you’ll learn how to knit the Reversible ZigZag Stitch, a knit + purl pattern, identical on both sides. I think it’s the perfect pattern for a scarf or a blanket, for several reasons: First, it doesn’t curl (it lays flat no matter what). Second, there’s no need to add another stitch for the edges (I’ll show you what to do to create pretty chains on each side). Third, both sides look the same, which makes the Reversible ZigZag Stitch ideal for an infinite cowl too. In fact, I’d use it for a sweater or cardigan. It has a lovely texture to it, it’s cozy and chunky, great for Autumn-Winter…

    December 11, 2024 /

    Today, you’ll learn how to knit cute and easy Christmas Mini Sweaters, using straight needles. The truth is that Christmas is around the corner, and I love to knit decorations for my little tree. Besides, they are pretty easy and quick to make, so, no matter if you’re a beginner. If you can knit and purl, you can knit many them 🙂 Just use anything you have on hand; be creative, and enjoy! Last, but not least, I’ll show you how to decorate them using the duplicate stitch. Materials The intention is for us to use our stash, so there’s no need to buy anything specific.

    Today, I’m sharing how to knit the Woven ZigZag stitch, a pattern that blows my mind! Although it looks complicated, it’s so simple, and yet so pretty, that I’m sure you’d like to give it a try 😉 The Woven ZigZag is an eight-row repeat pattern; the good news is that six of them are the same, and it has a short repeat. So, if you can knit and purl, this one will be easy for you. It creates a unique fabric, similar to the Diagonal Slipped Stitch we practiced a while ago. And it’ll work for a wide range of projects: From sweaters and blankets to accessories…even for home…

    November 13, 2024 /

    Today, you’ll learn how to knit a No-Purling Rib stitch, in 3 simple steps… It’s a one-row repeat pattern, and it has a lot of advantages to it: First of all, it’s super easy to knit and memorize: You’ll keep repeating the same 3 steps throughout the work. Second, it’s reversible. Yep, it’s identical on both sides, so although it’s not as stretchy as the classic 2 x2 Rib, it could be a substitute for sweaters and cardigans, for example. Third, no matter what you do, it doesn’t curl. Yay! It’ stays flat, so it’s one of the best options for scarves, blankets, placemats, infinite cowls… Plus any other garment…

    How to Knit a Raglan Sweater with Straight Needles + Video

    November 10, 2024 /

    In this post, I’m sharing how to knit a Raglan Sweater with straight needles, great for beginners. It’s a 4 pieces bottom-up construction, as follows: We’ll start at the hem (made in 2 x 2 Ribbing stitch), then, work up to the neckline in Stockinette stitch, ending with the neckline (also knitted in 2 x 2 Ribbing stitch). The good news is that the back and the front are the same, as the sleeves. So you’ll knit one of them and then repeat the process for the second one. Furthermore, there’s no need for the circular needles (not even for the neckline)… easy-peasy! Actually, after sharing another lovely sweater pattern…

    October 30, 2024 /

    Today, you’ll learn how to knit the Easy Mock Cables Stitch, a lovely knit and purl stitch, great for beginners 🙂 Actually, if you can knit and purl, this one is for you (there are no slipped stitches, nor decreasing or increasing). It’s another vertical pattern and has a pretty texture to it (featuring embossed diagonal lines). Furthermore, although both sides are different, the so-called wrong side looks cute too, so I’d say it’s a reversible stitch. The Easy Mock Cables Pattern is ideal for both, large and small projects, such as socks, hats, scarves, blankets, and sweaters. Ok, it’s time to knit!  Grab your needles and your favorite yarn,…

    In today’s tutorial, I’m sharing how to knit the Half Heart Stitch; it’s also known as the Reverse Stag Horn Stitch. Why? Well, we practiced the Stag Horn Knit Stitch a while ago, and I think this one can be a good complement. It’s a six-row repeat pattern, perfect for blankets, sweaters, hats, scarves, cowls…you name it! However, if you don’t want to make the whole sweater in this pattern, you can use it for a central panel on the sleeves, or the front only. Although you may think it’s complicated, the Half Heart Stitch is easy to make. Don’t worry! You shouldn’t be scared of cable knitting, especially those…
