    How to Knit a 2-row repeat Chevron Stitch + Video

    August 1, 2024 /

    Today, you’ll learn how to knit and bind off a lovely 2-row repeat Chevron stitch pattern. You may be wondering why another Chevron stitch. 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…

    How to Knit a 4-row Lace Stitch + video (easy & pretty)

    July 25, 2024 /

    Today, I’m sharing how to knit another pretty 4-row Lace Stitch Pattern. Honestly, in Summer, I prefer this kind of “easy lace” knitting pattern. Not only because they are light and airy, but because they look good in linen, bamboo, cotton yarn, or their blends. So there’s no need for touching wool yarn this time of the year 😉 Furthermore, this 4-row lace stitch is not complicated at all; the repeat is intuitive and easy to memorize. We’ll use the most common increase and the two most used decrease techniques. Besides, two of those four rows are plain purl rows. As easy as pie 🙂 Maybe you’re wondering what to…

    How to Knit the Openwork Garter Stitch (2 patterns + video)

    July 18, 2024 /

    Today, I’m sharing how to knit two variants of the Openwork Garter Stitch. It’s a lovely pattern, pretty versatile, and super easy… totally beginner-friendly (easier than the first lace pattern I shared with you). Honestly, this is the first lace pattern I learned, and what I like the most is that the Garter Stitch sections can be as fine as you prefer. For example, when I made the sweater shown in the pictures, I used the 2-row repeat pattern (see the instructions below). On the contrary, if you want to have a less open fabric, choose the 6-repeat row pattern (you’ll find the instructions further down below). It’s up to…

    How to Knit the Alternating Slip Stitch Pattern + video

    July 11, 2024 /

    Today, I’m sharing how to knit the adorable Alternating Slip Stitch pattern. Although it’s similar to the Grass stitch we practiced some weeks ago, I’d say this design is even more special… Why? Well, the reason is simple: When knitting three stitches together, we highlight some of the columns of knitted stitches, creating an eye-catching fabric. On another note, the Alternating Slip Stitch Pattern, is pretty easy to make. Its eight rows involves a short repeat, and the rows are virtually similar (2-3 steps that will be repeated throughout the work). I’m sure you’ll memorize it quickly, and that you’ll have fun knitting accessories, sweaters or cardigans. However, this pattern…

    How to Knit the Slip Stitch Honeycomb (free + video)

    July 6, 2024 /

    Today, I’m sharing how to knit the gorgeous Slip Stitch Honeycomb Pattern. It has a cute texture to it, which makes it perfect for baby/adult garments, such as blankets, sweaters, hats, socks, etc. Furthermore, it’s a four-row repeat pattern (two of which are plain purl rows), fun to knit and yet easy-peasy! Although both sides aren’t identical, the so-called “wrong side” of the work is similar to the Garter stitch, so I’d say it’s a reversible stitch. This is why the Slip Stitch Honeycomb pattern, will look great on a scarf or an infinite cowl too. Nevertheless, think of adding a nice edge in case you’d like to knit a…

    June 29, 2024 /

    In this tutorial, I’m sharing how to knit the Punch Work Stitch, a lace pattern, ideal for beginners. Why? First, there are only 3 simple steps that we’ll repeat time and time. Actually, the techniques required are knit, purl, yarn over, and knit two stitches together. If you’re just starting to knit, and haven’t tried any lace pattern yet, I’d suggest you give this one a chance. You won’t be disappointed, I promise 😉 Second, it’s a 4-row-repeat design, easy to memorize. Third, both sides look very pretty. Although they aren’t identical, the so-called “wrong side” of the work is absolutely gorgeous. Honestly, I’d use it as my right side.…

    June 22, 2024 /

    Today, I’m sharing how to knit the Polka Dot Stitch; a trend knitting pattern showing 2 variants, Mini and Mega. Both are knit and purl patterns, easy and fun to knit, perfect for beginners. Although they aren’t identical on both sides, we can classify them as reversible patterns; feel free to choose the right side of the work. Honestly, I prefer the Stockinette stitch background with the Polka Dot in Reverse Stockinette, but it’s up to you. The good news is that you can use them indistinctly for big or small garments. However, I’d go for the mini one when knitting baby stuff or accessories, and I’d use the mega…

    June 15, 2024 /

    Today, I’m sharing how to knit the Grass Stitch, a knit and purl pattern, stretchy, and reversible (identical on both sides). Another pattern that has everything we knitters love… Although it’s an eight-row repeat design, the good news is that the first 4 rows are identical, and the other 4 are identical too. Furthermore, it doesn’t curl (so, there’s no need to block your garments 🙂 The Grass stitch is an adorable pattern not only for scarves, blankets, and sweaters, but also for hats, cowls, and bags. Honestly, it reminds me of the Rambler Stitch, with the advantage that it’s much much easier to do. In addition, it will work…

    June 8, 2024 /

    In today’s tutorial, I’m sharing how to knit the Wasp Nest Stitch, step by step (some knitters also call it Honeycomb). It’s an eight-row repeat pattern, full of texture, perfect for blankets, sweaters, and hats, among other knitting projects. Although the Wasp Nest doesn’t look like a cable pattern, it requires the same technique:  We have to cross stitches (only in 2 rows for this pattern), to create the right/left leaning stitches, that form the little nests. To do that, we’ll use a third needle of the same size, cable needle, stitch holder, or even a Bobby Pin (a hairpin) #ad Whatever works for you. Honestly, I prefer something short,…

It’s a delicate two-row repeat pattern, easy and fun to make, ideal for a Summer scarf, for example.  Why? Well, the answer is simple! The Indian Pillar Stitch looks pretty on both sides, and it doesn’t curl 😉 Furthermore, it’ll look great on a seasonal top, cardigan, or sweater; you could use it as the main pattern… Or you can use it for a central panel like I did when designing my Tank Top.
