    How to Knit the ZigZag Seed Stitch + Video (cute!)

    October 23, 2024 /

    Today, you’ll learn how to knit the ZigZag Seed Stitch, a super cute knit and purl stitch, great for beginners 🙂 In fact, it reminds me of the Waved Welt Stitch, which we practiced sometime ago… Or another lovely pattern made out of “seeds”, special for baby stuff, the infamous Chevron Seed Stitch. But the difference is that they’re horizontal designs. On the contrary, the ZigZag Seed Stitch is a vertical pattern, ideal for large garments, such as blankets, scarves, sweaters, or cardigans. It has a lovely texture to it, and to see it properly, it’s necessary to work at least 2-3 repeats.  However, it tends to bend, so don’t…

    Two-Row Repeat Lace Knit Stitch & Double Vertical Decrease+ Video

    October 19, 2024 /

    Today, you’ll learn a lovely two-row repeat lace stitch pattern, and how to knit the wonderful double vertical decrease. Honestly, I can’t hide my excitement! Why? Because, until now, every time that I had to make a decrease, it had to be either a right or left-leaning decrease… We are used to making the classic knit two together (a right-leaning decrease), or the ssk (slip slip knit), which is a left-leaning decrease. But what if we want a straight decrease? What I mean, is that sometimes I’d like to have a vertical or “neutral” stitch after making decreases. So, in this tutorial, I’m sharing how to knit a double-neutral decrease,…

    How to Knit the Lobster Claw Stitch Pattern + Video

    October 12, 2024 /

    Today, you’ll learn how to knit the Lobster Claw stitch (as requested by one of my followers on YT). I’m happy to share this tutorial because it’s not only a delicate pattern; it’s much easier than many other cable designs. In fact, from the six rows that form it, five of them are plain knit or purl rows. So we’ll be crossing stitches in row 3 only… as easy as it gets! And I think that the Lobster Claw Stitch will look pretty not only on sweaters, but also on blankets, hats, gloves, socks, and scarves or wraps. It’s a 9 stitches-repeat pattern, and you can knit the cables together…

    How to Knit a Reversible Vintage Lace Stitch + video

    October 5, 2024 /

    In this tutorial, I’m sharing how to knit an adorable vintage lace stitch pattern. Although both sides look different, they are very pretty, so I’d say it’s a reversible knitting pattern. I think it’s the perfect pattern for a romantic scarf, rectangular shawl, or wrap. Moreover, it’ll look great also on a cardigan or sweater. If that’s your choice, you could use it to knit the whole garment, for the sleeves only, or as a central panel. This reversible vintage lace stitch is an 8-row repeat pattern, fun to knit, and I think we’ll be practicing a purl simple decrease for the first time 😉 Before we start knitting our…

    September 28, 2024 /

    Today, you’ll learn how to knit the Lace Knots Stitch, a new pattern that I just designed 🙂 Maybe you’re wondering how I came across this idea… Well, I remember that some months ago we practiced how to make knots, to add extra texture to your Stockinette Stitch piece. To be honest with you, I love the Stockinette/Stocking Stitch, but I also like to spice it up from time to time. So I thought that if we combine the knots with little holes (lace-like), we could get a lighter fabric. Luckily, it turned out pretty well, and I’m quite happy with the result! The Lace Knots Stitch is without a…

    Pop Spots Stitch Pattern Today, you’ll learn how to knit the Pop Spots stitch in two colors. It’s an eye-catching pattern, easy and fun to make! Although it looks like Fair Isle knitting, the only techniques required are knitting and purling 😉 Besides, what I love the most is that the pop spots look like a line of little sheep 🙂 Honestly, I think this pattern is great for baby-children stuff: From sweaters/cardigans to blankets… However, it needs a nice edge if you’re knitting a piece that should stay flat because it curls (at the end of the day is a Stockinette stitch pattern). For example, if I were to…

    Cloche Hat Free Knitting Pattern In this tutorial, you’ll learn how to knit a Cloche Hat (1920s fashion inspiration)… lovely! This free pattern comes in 4 sizes: Toddler, Child (up to 10 years), teenager, and adult, and it’s easy and fun to make, and pretty stretchy! Besides, it’s pretty versatile, as I divided the project into 3 parts: 1) The Brim is made in Garter stitch, but you can use a classic 1×1 Rib stitch, and work half of the rounds, to convert it into a traditional cap. 2) The rest of the hat is knitted in Granite stitch,  and you can also change it to the pattern of your…

    Today, you’ll learn how to knit the super cute Little Diamonds Lace stitch. Although you’ll see six rows, it’s a four-row repeat pattern; the first two are setup rows. After that, we’ll repeat only rows 1 to 4. Besides, it’s perfect for a wide range of projects such as Summer tops, blouses, scarves, wraps, shawls, you name it. Furthermore, I’d say that even a seasonal cardigan or sweater, will look great on it 😉 In fact, if you want to knit a simple and easy sweater, tailored to your measurements, using your favorite yarn, just follow this tutorial!  Honestly, the Little Diamonds Lace Stitch is a pretty special pattern; as…

    August 8, 2024 /

    In this post, I’m sharing 10 great tips to help you be a more productive knitter. Why? To me, September is like a new start, the beginning of my favorite time of the year. The long hot days of Summer are the perfect time to get organized, plan, and set systems and goals for the Autumn (or Fall in America). I know that many of you knit just for fun, but some, knit for charity, gifts, or presents for your loved ones, and for others, it’s an important source of income.

Well, the answer is simple: After sharing the last one, I received many requests… And the most frequent were: First, what to do to knit that Chevron stitch without the lace parts (some knitters prefer a dense fabric since they love to knit blankets using this pattern). Second, what to do to finish (bind-off or cast-off) the same way we started (with picks and throughs). Third, some of my followers asked me to explain what to do with so many ends in different colors (how to…
