    How to knit the Double Andalusian stitch pattern

    September 21, 2022 /

    In this tutorial, you’ll learn how to knit the Double Andalusian stitch pattern (a second version…Olé). We practiced another version of the Double Andalusian knitting pattern some time ago, very similar to this one, except that the little horizontal ridges are diagonal 😉 And most recently, I shared how to knit the simple Andalusian stitch, another lovely pattern! What these variations have in common is that all of them look pretty, they are super easy to do, and they combine only knit and purl stitches, which make them ideal for beginners. Additionally, the Double Andalusian stitch is great for a wide range of projects: From baby stuff, cushions, and placemats,…

    How to knit the Horizontal Welts stitch (reversible)

    July 13, 2022 /

    In today’s post, I’m sharing how to knit the Horizontal Welts stitch, another pattern ideal for beginners 🙂 Actually, it’s the perfect knit stitch for hats. Why? Basically, you don’t need to keep track of the stitch count… to make the decreases! By using this stitch, you can knit hats in several sizes, following any pattern you have on hand, and decrease when it’s needed (no calculations required)… YEAP! This is because each row will be knitted or purled entirely; there are no repetitions of different kinds of stitches. Furthermore, the Horizontal Welts stitch is a six-row repeat pattern, pretty easy to do (your only mission is to be aware…

    How to knit the Andalusian stitch (perfect for beginners)

    June 18, 2022 /

    In this post, I’m sharing how to knit the Andalusian stitch pattern (a cousin of the Double Andalusian stitch we practiced a while ago). Actually, it’s easier, perfect for beginners, unlike flamenco, (don’t ask!). Why? Basically, the Andalusian stitch is a four-row repeat pattern. It combines knit and purl stitches in one row; the remaining three are plain knit or purl rows… it couldn’t be easier 🙂 When I find patterns like this one, I need to say a couple of things: On one hand, knitting does not have to be complicated… this is proof! On the other hand, it’s incredible to see the number of fabulous patterns that exist;…

    How to knit the Alternating Dot stitch

    June 3, 2022 /

    In today’s post I’m sharing how to knit the Alternating Dot stitch, the cousin of another adorable pattern we practiced a while ago: The Dot stitch. The Alternating Dot stitch creates a fabric with rich texture on both sides; it’s super easy to do, ideal for beginners. Why? Well, there are several reasons: First of all, it’s a four-row repeat pattern, two of which are plain knit rows… YAY! The other two rows involve a short repeat of knits and purls. Secondly, because of the frequency of knit and purl stitches on the even rows, your piece will remain flat.  It won’t curl nor bend, so there’s no need of…

    How to knit the Granite stitch: Reversible, and it doesn’t curl!

    May 20, 2022 /

    The Granite stitch is one of those patterns we knitters love because it has it all… First and foremost, I’d like to say that it’s beautiful, like me 😉 Although both sides aren’t identical, they look adorable, so you can choose which one is going to be your “right side”. Actually, the so-called “wrong side” reminds me of the Grid stitch we learned a while ago (another stunner). Additionally, the Granite stitch is pretty easy to do; it combines knits and purls only, so it’s totally suitable for both, newbies and veterans 😉 Furthermore, it doesn’t curl, so it’s a great option for blankets, scarves, infinite cowls, but also hats,…

    How to knit the Diamond Brocade stitch pattern

    April 8, 2022 /

    In this post, you’ll learn how to knit the Diamond Brocade stitch, another classic of the knitting world. I think it’s an elegant knitting pattern, the diamonds show slightly raised, due to the combination of knit and purl stitches. However, it’s pretty easy to do, and although it’s not reversible, the so-called “wrong” side of the work, looks special too… Furthermore, the Diamond Brocade stitch lays flat, so I’d choose it for a blanket, without a doubt. Having said that, in case you are thinking about knitting a blanket, I’d add a nice edge in Seed stitch, on each side of the project (to match the diamonds ;). The good…

    How to knit the Chevron Seed stitch (ideal for baby blankies)

    March 18, 2022 /

    Today, I’m sharing how to knit the Chevron Seed stitch, an adorable version of the regular Chevron pattern (there are many of them, and so far, I’ve shared two). Maybe, it’s so lovely because of what I call “The Seed Factor”…? I don’t know if you feel the same, but to me, the Seed stitch is something special. I find it so cute, that it makes me think instantly of babies 🙂 In fact, I believe this pattern is ideal for a baby blanket (although I’d suggest adding a nice edge on each side of the project, that could be made in Seed stitch of course). The Chevron Seed stitch…

    How to knit the Tiles stitch: Reversible and it lays flat!

    March 11, 2022 /

    The Tiles stitch is an adorable knitting pattern, that shares the DNA of the Thermal stitch we practiced a couple of weeks ago. Honestly, it’s a great option for beginners 🙂 Why? First of all, it combines knit + purl stitches; there is no need to increase or decrease. Secondly, it doesn’t curl. It’s one of those stitches that lay flat no matter what 😉  From time to time it’s refreshing to have options when we don’t want to think about adding edges or blocking…  In fact, with this kind of pattern, you can start knitting, bind off, and wear your garment straight away! Furthermore, it’s identical on both sides,…

    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…
