    How to Knit the Polka Dot Stitch (2 patterns + video)

    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…

    Easy Knit and Purl Stitch Pattern for Scarves + video

    May 11, 2024 /

    Today, you’ll learn an easy knit and purl stitch perfect for scarves; absolutely beginner-friendly. After my last tutorial, another nice lady, follower from my YouTube channel, sent it to me, and I realized, once again, how easy pretty stitch patterns can be 😉 Actually, it’s not only great for scarves; this is a great pattern for blankets, throws, and rectangular shawls. Furthermore, it’ll also work beautifully for baby clothing and accessories. It reminds me of this anti and purl version of the Double Garter Stitch we practiced a while ago. Why? First, both sides are almost identical, so it’s one of those reversible patterns we knitters love. Second, it lays…

    How to knit the Hurdle stitch (4 rows beginner-friendly!)

    December 20, 2023 /

    Today, I’m sharing how to knit another classic of the knitting world: The Hurdle Stitch. It’s a four-row repeat pattern, two of which are plain knit rows, so it’s super easy to knit and memorize. In addition, the other two rows combine knit and purl stitches, so it doesn’t curl! The Hurdle stitch lays flat no matter what 🙂 Moreover, is a little bit stretchy, yet firm and spongy at the same time, and it’s reversible!  Yep, both sides look identical. Last but not least, you can use it for all kinds of projects: From socks, hats, gloves, or mittens, to blankets, sweaters, or cardigans, including home accessories (dishcloths, cushions,…

    How to knit the Petal stitch, pretty and easy!

    July 29, 2023 /

    Today, I’m sharing how to knit the Petal stitch, an adorable pattern, ideal for beginners. It has a pretty texture to it, and although it’s an eight-row repeat pattern, it’s super easy to do. In fact, six of those eight rows, are plain knit or purl rows; the little petals are created by knitting one stitch into the row below. I think it’s a nice option when we knitters want to finish a project quickly, but not again using the Stockinette or Garter stitch. The Petal stitch is perfect for sweaters, cardigans, tops, and even hats and socks. Nevertheless, if you want to knit a scarf, a cowl, or any…

    How to knit the Moss Rib stitch (two rows only!) 

    July 5, 2023 /

    In this post, I’m sharing how to knit the Moss Rib stitch… so cute! It’s a two-row repeat pattern, super easy to do, ideal for beginners, because the only techniques required are knit and purl 😉 Although it’s not identical on both sides, they look pretty, so to me, it’s a reversible pattern. Moreover, it doesn’t curl, which makes it great not only for baby stuff but also for scarves, blankets, cowls, etc. In adittion, it’s a lovely stitch for edges or borders (it’s not as stretchy as a regular Rib). Without further ado, grab your needles, and some yarn, and let’s get ribbing! Abbreviations CO: Cast on RS: Right…

    How to knit the Checker stitch (it lays flat)

    June 3, 2023 /

    Today, you’ll learn how to knit the Checker stitch, with knits and purls only. It’s a simple yet pretty pattern, easy to do, and great for beginners (there are no increases or decreases). Additionally, the Checker stitch has a lovely texture to it, and although it’s not reversible, both sides look pretty. Similar to the Embossed Blocks stitch we practiced a while ago, it stays flat no matter what; so there’s no need to add an edge or border. Which makes it perfect for scarves, infinite cowls, blankets, hats, but also for a sweater or cardigan. Without further ado, grab your needles, and some yarn, and let’s get busy! Abbreviations…

    How to knit a stitch pattern for edges (knit and purl)

    May 27, 2023 /

    In this post, I’m sharing how to knit a super easy knit and purl stitch pattern, perfect for edges (borders), because, as you already know, there are many stitch patterns that bend and curl… And when I publish those kinds of patterns, I normally suggest to add a  nice edge on each side of the garment, if you want to knit a blanket, scarf, cowl, etc. However, the first things that come to mind when thinking of an edge, are the Garter stitch, the Seed stitch, or the Irish Moss stitch. Well, these are not the only ones! Today’s knit and purl stitch can be added to your list. Why?…
