    How to knit the Fisherman’s Rib with knit stitches only (no purling!)

    November 14, 2021 /

    In today’s tutorial, you’ll learn how to knit and bind off the Fisherman’s Rib using only knit stitches (no purling required, yay!!!). Similar to the original one, we practiced a while ago, this version is simply brilliant! Why? Well… this pattern features everything we knitters love: First of all, it’s a one-row repeat pattern: We’ll start with a setup row which will be done just once, and from there, there is only one row to repeat until the project is finished. Secondly, it’s pretty easy to knit: There are only two steps to memorize. Could not be easier! In third place, it’s a totally reversible pattern (identical on both sides).…

    Learn to knit the One-Row repeat stitch: Reversible, great for scarves!

    October 16, 2021 /

    Today, you’ll learn to knit the one-row repeat stitch, great for scarves and infinite cowls. It’s a lovely pattern; it will work for Winter/Summer garments, and it has some advantages to it: First of all, it’s easy to do: There are 4 steps that be repeated time and time again because it’s a one-row pattern. Secondly, it’s reversible and identical on both sides, this is why it’s great for scarves. Furthermore, it doesn’t curl. Therefore, there is no need to think of edges, but it’s also true that even a simple Garter stitch edge will make it shine… Variety and contrast are the spice of life! Finally, you won’t have…

    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…

    How to knit the Two-Color Reversible Ribbing stitch

    July 27, 2021 /

    In today’s tutorial, I’m sharing how to knit the classic 1 x 1 Rib stitch, with a twist: Using two colors, we’ll create a solid reversible fabric, identical on both sides.  Certainly, I’m a fan of different kinds of Ribbing stitches, and we have practiced some of them in the past, like the adorable Feather Rib knitting pattern 😉 But I have to say that the Two-Color Reversible Ribbing is pretty special. It’s an eye-catching pattern because the columns of knit stitches appear clearly raised, alternating colors on each row. In fact, it’s a lovely option for scarves; depending on the combination of colors chosen, the result can be subtle,…

    Symmetry in the Chevron stitch/3 needle bind off (no seaming)

    July 13, 2021 /

    Several months ago, we practiced the Reversible Chevron stitch, and in this tutorial, I’m sharing three new things:  On one hand, you’ll learn how to knit the Ribbed Chevron stitch, ideal for scarves, blankets, and rectangular shawls or wraps (both sides look almost identical, and it stays flat! Yay!). On the other hand, you’ll see what to do to make both extremes of the garment look the same when knitting a stitch that creates picks (or a pointy edge). In other words, how to get symmetry in your Chevron stitches… yeap, it’s possible! Last, but not least, you’ll learn how to bind off and seam two knitted pieces at the…

    How to knit the Rickrack Rib stitch: A two-row repeat pattern that doesn’t curl

    June 12, 2021 /

    In this tutorial, I’m sharing how to knit the famous Rickrack Rib stitch (which reminds me of the beautiful Feather Rib stitch). First of all, it’s a reversible pattern (although its sides are not identical, both create two eye-catching textures), and furthermore, it doesn’t curl… Yay! Secondly, the Rickrack Rib stitch is a unisex stitch: It’ll work perfectly for girls’, boys’ of all ages, and children’s garments too.  In addition, it has a double rich texture to it: One of the sides forms embossed zig-zag columns; the other looks similar to the Textured Stockinette stitch. Consequently, it’s a charming option for knitting the cuffs of your sweaters and socks, gloves,…

    Embossed Blocks knitting stitch pattern: Reversible, unisex, and it doesn’t curl

    April 12, 2021 /

    In today’s tutorial, you’ll learn how to knit the Embossed Blocks stitch pattern: Super easy, reversible (although it’s not identical on both sides, the “right” and the “wrong” sides look pretty!). Furthermore, it’s also a unisex stitch pattern, so it could be used to knit women’s, children’s, and men’s garments, such as scarves, blankies, cushions, cowls…you name it! And it doesn’t matter if you are just starting to knit: The Embossed Blocks stitch is a 8 row-repeat pattern. Most of those rows are exactly the same, so it’s not difficult to memorize. The Embossed Blocks knitting pattern is similar to the Little Boxes stitch we practiced some time ago, another…

    Acorn knitting stitch pattern: Reversible and unisex

    January 30, 2021 /

    In today’s tutorial, you’ll learn how to knit the Acorn stitch pattern, step by step. Another classic of the knitting world which I wanted to share a long time ago, but as with the Honeycomb stitch we learned last week, I never had the time, these days we all have a little extra. It’s a unisex, reversible pattern (although not identical on both sides), it doesn’t curl, so it’s a great choice when knitting women’s and men’s scarves, cowls and sweaters. The Acorn knitting stitch creates a fabric that mixes density and subtlety and even includes lacey bits. It’s easy to knit, because it’s very intuitive: You can see clearly…

    Shaker stitch knitting pattern (Half Fisherman’s Rib)

    Easier than the classic Fisherman’s Rib stitch, the Shaker stitch (aka Half Fisherman’s Rib) is ideal for beginners.  It’s a simple two-row repeat pattern, and there is only one step to memorize; the odd rows are just knit rows.  This version is a delicate pattern, less spongy than the original one, and it doesn’t curl either. The Shaker stitch, reversible and unisex, is perfect for knitting women’s and men’s scarves, cowls, sweaters, blankets, but also baby garments. Let’s get started!
