    How to knit the Thermal stitch: For veterans and absolute beginners!

    February 11, 2022 /

    In this post, I’m sharing how to knit the Thermal stitch, known also as “Interrupted Rib” (similar to the Pique stitch we practiced a couple of weeks ago). It’s a four-row repeat pattern, that’s totally beginner-friendly! Why? Well, there are some reasons: First of all, it’s simple to knit; the Thermal stitch combines knits and purls only. In fact, there are no increases, decreases, or crossing stitches involved… easy peasy. What’s more, two of the four rows are plain knit and purl rows! Secondly,  although both sides are not identical, you can decide which one will be the “right side”, because the two of them look nice 😉 Honestly, I…

    How to knit the Pique Rib stitch: Great for beginners

    January 22, 2022 /

    In this tutorial, you’ll learn how to knit the Pique Rib stitch; super easy to do, ideal for beginners (it combines simple knit and purl stitches). It’s a reversible four-row repeat pattern (although both sides are different, they look pretty); the so-called “wrong side of the work” looks like a “Broken Rib stitch. Two of the four rows are identical, and one of them is a plain knit row, so if you are just starting to knit, this one is for you! Furthermore, the Pique Rib stitch stays flat, so it’s perfect for accessories such as scarves, cowls, wraps, etc., but also for larger pieces, such as blankets, sweaters, or…

    Cell stitch: A four-row repeat lace pattern for knitting tops/blouses

    June 8, 2021 /

    In today’s tutorial, I’m sharing how to knit the Cell stitch (I posted it on Instagram last week, and many of you are loving it)! It’s a four-row repeat pattern, ideal for knitting not only Summer tops or blouses, but also hats, scarves, or baby bonnets. What I love about the Cell stitch is that it is easy to memorize and fun to knit; it involves just 2-3 steps that are repeated time and time again (and the even rows are plain purl rows). It reminds me of this lace pattern we practiced a while ago. Ok then, let’s get started! Abbreviations CO: Cast on st: Stitch RS: Right side…

    Zig-Zag Lace knitting pattern (easy-peasy and it doesn’t curl)

    January 13, 2021 /

    Today it’s all about Zig-Zag Lace, but first…Happy New Year, my little Woolly! May 2021 bless you with health, wealth, and happiness :)! In today’s tutorial, you’ll learn how to knit an easy Zig-Zag lace knitting stitch. A four-row repeat pattern, ideal for those knitters that haven’t tried lace yet… The Zig-Zag pattern is created by alternating two different decreases on each odd row; firstly, knitting two stitches together, which is a right leaning decrease, and then, another sort of single decrease, that results in a left leaning stitch. This pattern is the perfect solution when knitting a top or sweater, with a small touch of lace, but not a…

    How to knit the Basket stitch: Chunky and cozy

    In today’s tutorial, you’ll learn how to knit the Basket stitch: Easy (to knit and to memorize) and ideal for knitting any sort of warm and cozy clothing (hats, blankets, cowls, sweaters, etc.). This is a four-row repeat pattern, perfect for beginners (the only techniques required are knitting and purling). This version of the Basket stitch shares the same DNA than the Waffle stitch, we learned sometime ago, and because of the slipped stitches, it tends to curl… No need to panic though 🙂 There is always a solution: Either you knit a nice edge on each side of the work, or block the piece once it’s finished.

    How to knit the Ripple stitch: Perfect for hats, cowls, and sweaters

    November 26, 2019 /

    In today’s lesson, you will learn how to knit the Ripple stitch. A lovely cross pattern, easy to knit, great for many Winter garments: Hats, cowls, sweaters… There are only four rows (two of them are purl rows), and two steps to memorize. It’s not reversible, and I have to warn you, it tends to roll. So, if you are thinking about knitting a scarf with the Ripple stitch, I suggest you add a generous knitting edge, to prevent the inevitable curling. It has a great texture to it, and it’s similar to the Spine stitch, or to the Crossed Check stitch. Abbreviations CO: Cast on k: Knit p: Purl…
