    3D Crocodile stitch pattern (full of volume and texture!)

    October 3, 2021 /

    Today, I’m sharing how to knit the 3D Crocodile stitch pattern: It’s tridimensional, full of volume; it’s a great option for the sleeves of a cardigan or a sweater. Actually, the 3D Crocodile stitch is one of the chunky knitting patterns that are so trendy right now, similar to the Puffy stitch we practiced a while ago. However, before we start, I have a couple of tips for you: First of all, if you were to knit a sweater or cardigan, to get the right amount of volume/texture for the warm and cozy effect, I suggest Merino wool yarn, using needles one number lower than the recommended in the label.…

    How to knit Mittens for beginners (using straight needles)

    September 30, 2021 /

    In today’s tutorial, I’m sharing my easiest pattern to knit mittens for beginners, using straight needles, not circulars. You can decorate them as a Halloween project, as I did, (for the pumpkin, I applied the Duplicate Stitch technique) or not… it’s up to you 😉 The only techniques required are knitting and purling because the design will do the work for you: Due to the combination of knit + purl stitches, you won’t need to increase, nor decrease anything! In fact, this is a great option when you just want to watch your favorite TV show (currently mine is The Morning Show), and don’t feel like paying extra attention to…

    Two-row repeat Mesh knitting stitch pattern (super easy!)

    September 26, 2021 /

    In today’s tutorial, you’ll learn how to knit a two-row repeat Mesh stitch pattern. Actually, I know that knitting lace can be scary for some new knitters, but I assure you that this pattern is a great way to ease into lacework 😉 On one hand, I love this Mesh pattern, because the only techniques required are knitting and purling, along with yarn over. Easy peasy! On the other hand, its design is sooooo romantic… it reminds me of the Herringbone lace stitch we practiced sometime ago. Finally, this Mesh stitch pattern is a great option for a seasonal scarf, wrap, or rectangular shawl. But I would take it into…

    How to knit a Dragon’s Tail Shawl for beginners, using Garter stitch!

    September 23, 2021 /

    In today’s tutorial, you’ll learn how to knit a stunning Dragon’s Tail Shawl, using Garter stitch only, ideal for beginners (totally different to the Infinite Cowl we knitted last Autumn). It’s one of the easiest constructions you can find, asymmetric and super flexible: Use your favorite fiber, and make it the size you want. The Dragon’s Tail Shawl is the perfect project for variegated yarns. That kind of material will do the magic for you. Your only mission is to knit every stitch of every row! It’s a horizontal construction, I mean side-to-side: We start on the left end and finish on the right end (or vice versa), and there…

    How to knit the cute Pennant stitch – it lays flat, no matter what!

    September 19, 2021 /

    In today’s tutorial, you’ll learn how to knit the Pennant stitch, a cute six-row repeat pattern, which combines knits and purls only. Similar to the Embossed Blocks stitch, we practiced sometime ago, the Pennant stitch creates an unusual horizontal motif (the vertical patterns are more common, I have to say). However, it’s an easy-peasy stitch. I love it because it’s also reversible (it looks gorgeous on both sides), and it lays flat (no need to think about adding edges at all!). Above all, the Pennant stitch has a lovely texture to it; it forms little flags which appear raised or embossed. I like it for baby stuff, maybe a blanket,…

    Super easy Diagonal knitting stitch pattern (great for beginners)

    September 16, 2021 /

    In the first tutorial of this new season, you’ll learn a super easy Diagonal knitting stitch pattern which is much easier than the last one we practiced. This is why I recommend it for beginners because it only takes four rows, and the only techniques required are knitting and purling. When you try it, you’ll see that basically, it’s a 2 x 2 pattern, super easy to knit! I promise 😉 Another advantage of this Diagonal stitch is that it’s reversible (identical on both sides); furthermore, because of the frequency of knit and purl stitches in each row, it lays flat, no matter what. It’s a lovely “no curling” stitch…

    How to knit the Mock English Rib stitch

    July 30, 2021 /

    In this tutorial, I’m sharing a variant of the Mock English Rib which is one of my favorites (two weeks ago we practiced a similar two-row repeat pattern, dedicated to all those knitters that don’t love to purl). Why am I a fan of this version? First of all, because of its amazing texture, formed by the combination of knits and purls only; there is no need for slipping stitches. This pattern creates embossed columns, crispy and gorgeous vertical lines. Secondly, this variant of the Mock English Rib is pretty easy to knit, perfect for beginners: When you try it, you’ll see that it’s basically a 2 x 2 rib,…

    How to knit the Two-Color Reversible Ribbing stitch

    July 27, 2021 /

    In today’s tutorial, I’m sharing how to knit the classic 1 x 1 Rib stitch, with a twist: Using two colors, we’ll create a solid reversible fabric, identical on both sides.  Certainly, I’m a fan of different kinds of Ribbing stitches, and we have practiced some of them in the past, like the adorable Feather Rib knitting pattern 😉 But I have to say that the Two-Color Reversible Ribbing is pretty special. It’s an eye-catching pattern because the columns of knit stitches appear clearly raised, alternating colors on each row. In fact, it’s a lovely option for scarves; depending on the combination of colors chosen, the result can be subtle,…

    In this tutorial, you’ll learn how to knit the Garter stitch Rib, step by step (it reminds me of the Ribbed Garter pattern, we practiced a while ago). It’s super easy to do, ideal for beginners: The only techniques required are knitting and purling, and the pattern is made in just two rows. Although, at first sight, the Garter stitch Rib doesn’t seem reversible, the wrong side of the work looks adorable too 😉 So, it’s the perfect option for scarves, blankets, rectangular shawls, and any other project of your choice (it’s a unisex pattern, so it can be used for girls’ and boys’ garments). Besides, due to the frequent…

    New Two-Row repeat knitting stitch, perfect for knitting scarves – No purling required!

    In today’s tutorial, I’m sharing an adorable stitch, ideal for beginners. This is a new two-row repeat knitting pattern, perfect for scarves, because it’s reversible (identical on both sides), and unisex. Actually, it’s so easy, that you don’t even have to purl: The pattern requires knits and slip-stitches only! It looks pretty similar to the Double Slip-Stitch Rib pattern, but it’s even easier 😉 Furthermore, it stays flat, so it can be used for blankets, cowls, bags, table runners, place mats, cushions, and many other projects, the possibilities are endless! Finally, in the video tutorial, you’ll see how it’s done in both English and Continental style… ooh la la. Ok,…
