    How to knit Subtle Stripes in Garter stitch (one row only)

    May 14, 2022 /

    Today, I’m sharing how to knit Subtle Stripes in Garter stitch, a super easy knitting pattern, perfect for beginners. Why? The reasons vary: First of all, it’s a one-row repeat pattern. It involves only two steps that will be repeated throughout the project, so it’s pretty easy to memorize. Secondly, it lays flat no matter what (as we knitters like). Thirdly, it’s reversible (identical on both sides); ideal for scarves, rectangular shawls, infinite cowls, blankets, and a wide range of projects. Although it looks like the Ribbed Garter stitch we practiced a while ago, I have to say that these stripes are more tenuous, more delicate. Last but not least,…

    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 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,…

    How to knit a second version of the famous Mock English Rib stitch

    February 18, 2022 /

    In this post, you’ll learn a second version of the Mock English Rib stitch; I shared the first one some months ago, and it’s also adorable! Although both stitches look similar, the main differences are: This one looks flatter; the columns of “v’s” aren’t raised as in the first version. And this second version isn’t as stretchy as the anterior. So I wouldn’t use it for the cuffs of hats, sweaters, or socks. In fact, I think it’s a great pattern for blankies. However, they share most of the details: 1) They’re two-row repeat patterns 2) Both are reversible and identical on both sides 3) They lay flat 4) There’s…

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

    January 29, 2022 /

    In this post, I’ll show you how to knit the Half Garter Rib stitch; another great pattern for beginners (if you can knit and purl, you can do it!). One of the reasons why this pattern is so easy to do (and to memorize) is that it involves two rows only, one of which is a plain knit row. Could not be easier! Moreover, it’s a reversible pattern; although both sides aren’t identical, the other side of the work has also an interesting texture to it, you’ll see. Similar to the Mock Rib Stitch, the Half Garter Rib stitch doesn’t roll up, so it will work for a wide range…

    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…

    How to knit the One-row repeat stitch: Reversible (it doesn’t curl)

    December 15, 2021 /

    In this tutorial, you’ll learn how to knit a one-row repeat lace knit stitch, in both, English and Continental styles. It’s a reversible knit stitch pattern, identical on both sides, although, to me, the even rows form the “Right” side of the work. Additionally, this one-row lace knit stitch doesn’t curl, because of the combination of knit and purl stitches; similar to the Herringbone Lace stitch we practiced a while ago. Apart from being pretty easy to do (there are no twists nor any especially difficult steps), you can use it for both Summer and Winter garments, in other words, cotton or wool, it’s up to you 🙂 Nevertheless, before…

    How to knit a Super Easy One-Row Repeat pattern

    December 11, 2021 /

    Today, I’m sharing a super easy one-row repeat knitting pattern, perfect for a lot of projects, such as scarves, blankies, infinite cowls, wraps, or throws…you name it! Why? First and foremost, it lays flat; it doesn’t roll up or bend on any side, so it’s not necessary to add an edge.  It’s a reversible pattern, almost identical on both sides. Furthermore, it’s a vertical pattern, great for long garments; it forms both, embossed columns of “v” and pleats, for a slim and elegant design. In addition, it’s an easy-peasy one-row repeat pattern. It’s made of plain knit + purl stitches (no increases nor decreases are needed). Finally, in the video…

    How to knit the cute Pennant stitch – it lays flat, no matter what!

    September 19, 2021 /

    In today’s tutorial, you’ll learn how to knit the Pennant stitch, a cute six-row repeat pattern, which combines knits and purls only. Similar to the Embossed Blocks stitch, we practiced sometime ago, the Pennant stitch creates an unusual horizontal motif (the vertical patterns are more common, I have to say). However, it’s an easy-peasy stitch. I love it because it’s also reversible (it looks gorgeous on both sides), and it lays flat (no need to think about adding edges at all!). Above all, the Pennant stitch has a lovely texture to it; it forms little flags which appear raised or embossed. I like it for baby stuff, maybe a blanket,…

    July 23, 2021 /

    In this tutorial, you’ll learn how to knit the Garter stitch Rib, step by step (it reminds me of the Ribbed Garter pattern, we practiced a while ago). It’s super easy to do, ideal for beginners: The only techniques required are knitting and purling, and the pattern is made in just two rows. Although, at first sight, the Garter stitch Rib doesn’t seem reversible, the wrong side of the work looks adorable too 😉 So, it’s the perfect option for scarves, blankets, rectangular shawls, and any other project of your choice (it’s a unisex pattern, so it can be used for girls’ and boys’ garments). Besides, due to the frequent…
