    How to knit the Raised Diamonds stitch pattern

    December 4, 2021 /

    In this post, I’m sharing how to knit the Raised Diamonds stitch pattern, using knit and purl stitches only.  In fact, there are no twists, no decreases, nor increases! Yep 😉 Lately, we’ve been practicing several patterns which create rich textures by working stitches through the back loop, or right/left crossing stitches. So, today, I wanted to show you how to build larger solid shapes with a combination of plain knit and purl stitches only. The Raised Diamonds stitch pattern has some advantages to it: First of all, it’s super easy to knit. Every two rows, we work what we see (knit the knits and purl the purls); furthermore, some…

    How to knit the Twisted Rib stitch (English and Continental style)

    November 27, 2021 /

    In this tutorial, you’ll learn how to knit the Twisted Rib stitch, an interesting version of the 2 x 2 Rib. In my humble opinion, all these different versions of the classic rib stitches are so useful. They add a nice touch to your knitting work. However, this one is not quite as stretchy as some other rib styles. This is why I’d use it as a main stitch for a whole garment, such as a scarf or an infinite cowl, rather than cuffs in general. In fact, its design creates small cables, a vertical pattern that will stand out in a large piece. On the other hand, the Twisted Rib…

    Easy two-row repeat knit stitch, for scarves and blankets

    November 20, 2021 /

    Today, I’m sharing a lovely two-row repeat knit stitch, great for scarves, blankies, and infinite cowls. Its design creates embossed columns, with crispy and gorgeous vertical lines. Not only is it easy to make and memorize, its also reversible (not identical on both sides, but the other side of the work looks gorgeous too). Additionally, this two-row repeat pattern stays flat all the time, so there’s no need to think about edges 😉 If you’re starting to knit, my suggestion is to get sharp tip needles. This will make everything easier; the sharp tip helps to get two stitches together, and to purl a stitch through the back loop!  Believe…

    How to knit the Fisherman’s Rib with knit stitches only (no purling!)

    November 14, 2021 /

    In today’s tutorial, you’ll learn how to knit and bind off the Fisherman’s Rib using only knit stitches (no purling required, yay!!!). Similar to the original one, we practiced a while ago, this version is simply brilliant! Why? Well… this pattern features everything we knitters love: First of all, it’s a one-row repeat pattern: We’ll start with a setup row which will be done just once, and from there, there is only one row to repeat until the project is finished. Secondly, it’s pretty easy to knit: There are only two steps to memorize. Could not be easier! In third place, it’s a totally reversible pattern (identical on both sides).…

    How to knit the Thorn stitch pattern, using straight needles

    November 4, 2021 /

    In this tutorial, this rose is sharing how to knit the Thorn stitch pattern, using straight needles, while on the other hand, you’ll learn a combination of techniques to create texture in your knitting. Similar to the Star knit stitch we practiced a while ago, today’s pattern forms an adorable diagonal motif. Therefore, the Thorn knit stitch is a lovely option when knitting a wide range of projects, not only accessories such as hats, gloves, socks, but also larger garments. For example, it looks great on blankets, shawls, wraps, etc. However, if you decide to knit a rectangular piece, don’t forget to add a nice edge! In summary, the Thorn…

    How to knit the Mock Cable Ribbing stitch

    October 28, 2021 /

    Today, you’ll learn how to knit the Mock Cable Ribbing stitch, both, back and forth, and in the round, a two-row repeat pattern, full of texture. Although each side is not identical, they both look pretty nice, so I’d say it’s reversible. At the same time, it’s easy to knit, the only techniques required are knitting and purling, plus a simple twist 😉 In addition, the Mock Cable Ribbing can be used to substitute the normal 2 x 2 Rib stitch, or as the main stitch, perfect for scarves, blankies, cowls… you name it! Last, but not least, before starting a whole project, I’d suggest you knit a swatch.  Depending…

    How to knit the Purl Twist stitch pattern, step by step

    October 21, 2021 /

    In this tutorial, you’ll learn how to knit the Purl Twist stitch, a four-row repeat pattern with a twist… And it has nothing to do with knitting or purling through the back loop 😉 In fact, I’m showing you how to cross stitches without using a cable needle; a simple way to do right-leaning, almost diagonal stitches, without a lot of effort. Additionally, the Purl Twist stitch creates a lovely fabric, which has a rich texture to it, similar to a wicker basket (like the Jute stitch pattern). Therefore, it’s a great pattern for accessories, such as hats, gloves, socks, etc., and also, for sweaters, cardigans, even a blanket. However,…

    October 16, 2021 /

    Today, you’ll learn to knit the one-row repeat stitch, great for scarves and infinite cowls. It’s a lovely pattern; it will work for Winter/Summer garments, and it has some advantages to it: First of all, it’s easy to do: There are 4 steps that be repeated time and time again because it’s a one-row pattern. Secondly, it’s reversible and identical on both sides, this is why it’s great for scarves. Furthermore, it doesn’t curl. Therefore, there is no need to think of edges, but it’s also true that even a simple Garter stitch edge will make it shine… Variety and contrast are the spice of life! Finally, you won’t have…

    How to knit the Diagonal Flakes stitch pattern

    October 13, 2021 /

    In this tutorial, I’m sharing how to knit the Diagonal Flakes stitch pattern… quite simply it’s fantastic! Similar to the Crocodile stitch we learned some time ago, this stitch pattern has a rich texture to it, and it’s easy-peasy 😉 In fact, the Diagonal Flakes stitch is perfect for a cardigan (or sweater). This is why I’ve knitted a swatch including a 2 x 2 rib, to recreate a sleeve. Additionally, it’s a four-row repeat pattern, two of which are plain purl rows; the other two consist in a repetition of two basic steps. Also, I’d like to take this opportunity to show you a little trick when knitting the…

First of all, the Feather Lace knitting stitch is a two-row repeat pattern, one of those being a plain purl row.  Secondly, it’s easy, quick, and fun to knit, this scarf only takes one ball of yarn.
