    A version of the Waffle stitch knitting pattern ideal for beginners

    October 30, 2020 /

    This new version of the Waffle stitch knitting pattern is ideal for beginners: It’s super easy to do (the only techniques required are the knit stitch and the purl), it’s reversible (both sides look pretty), and also unisex. It’s the perfect stitch for knitting women’s and men’s scarves, but also hats, blankets, cushions, bags…the options are endless! This Waffle stitch pattern is easier than the last one I shared (there are only four rows of plain knitting and purling). Let’s get started! Abbreviations CO: Cast on Sl1pw: Slip one stitch purl wise K: Knit P: Purl RS: Right side of the work BO: Bind off N.B.: On every row, slip…

    Double Slip-stitch Rib knitting pattern: 2 steps and 2 rows

    October 23, 2020 /

    Dedicated to all those who aren’t purling fans, this tutorial will show you how to knit the the Double Slip-stitch Rib pattern (in both, English and Continental style). At first glance, it looks like the classic 2×2 Rib stitch, but if we take a closer look, we’ll see how the columns are embossed, standing out remarkably.  The Double Slip-stitch Rib is a two-row repeat pattern, one of which is plain knitting, and the other row requires two simple steps: More knitting and slipping stitches. The good news is that it doesn’t involve any purling! Yay! Because it’s well known that many of us don’t love to purl, and it has been…

    July 23, 2020 /

    Today, you’ll learn to knit the Pearled stitch, a very simple knitting pattern, that features many advantages, which makes it ideal for beginners, such as: It’s reversible: Choose the side of your preference, they aren’t identical, but both are lovely (like the Edelweiss stitch). It doesn’t curl: It has a rich texture to it, so it lays flat; it’s perfect for knitting scarves, infinite cowls, hats, blankets, sweaters, cardigans…you name it! It’s unisex: The Pearled stitch works for both women’s and men’s knitted garments, and furthermore, it’s so cute that it’ll make your baby accessories and clothing look charming.

    How to Knit the Dot Stitch: Easy + doesn’t curl!

    July 7, 2020 /

    Today, you’ll learn to knit the Dot stitch. A cute four-row repeat pattern, that doesn’t curl. It’s ideal for beginners, since the only techniques involved are knit and purl (no increases/decreases needed). Yaaay! The Dot stitch knitting pattern is similar yet simpler than the Sand stitch we learned sometime ago. It has a delicate texture to it, and it’s perfect for knitting baby clothes and accessories, blankets, and women’s sweaters or cardigans.

    How to knit the Cross stitch: A two-row repeat pattern

    December 2, 2019 /

    Today you’ll learn how to knit a beautiful and easy cross stitch. Similar to the Spine stitch, this Cross stitch is a two-repeat pattern, one of which is just purling. Its eye-catching texture makes it great for knitting hats, cowls and sweaters (as the Ripple stitch).  To successfully use this pattern, I strongly recommend two things: This cross stitch is not reversible and requires blocking, once our work is finished. Why? Because it tends to twist (it happens when crossing as we are pulling the stitches in a different direction every two rows). This one is a great blocking board, with grid lines, and t-pins! And for best results, I…
