    Puffy stitch knitting pattern: Versatile and rich in texture

    June 17, 2021 /

    In this tutorial, you’ll learn how to knit the Puffy stitch pattern: A fluffy, cozy stitch, which adds a lot of texture to the fabric. Because of its puffy look, it reminds me of the Fuchsia Flower stitch we practiced a while ago. On one hand, the Puffy stitch is pretty versatile, it can be used to create a single motif, you can also work just a row of puff stitch amongst a Stockinette stitch, or knit all rows of the stitch to make a puffy stitch fabric. It’s ideal for hats, blankets, or parts of a sweater/cardigan (like the sleeves, or the front/fronts). On the other hand, it’s easier…

    Chain stitch: An easy pattern for knitting baby stuff

    May 19, 2020 /

    The Chain stitch is one of those easy knitting patterns, ideal for beginners. Similar to the Hail stitch, it’s a horizontal pattern, not reversible, but it doesn’t curl. A four-row repeat stitch, adorable, delicate, great for knitting baby clothing and accessories (hats, cardigans, blankies, mittens, etc). This is the perfect stitch to practice the easiest decreases and increases that exist in the knitting world, combined with basic knits and purls. Grab your needles and let’s go!

    In today’s tutorial, you’ll learn how to knit the Pearl Brioche pattern, a spongy stitch, and full of texture! Honestly, it’s perfect for blankets, sweaters, cardigans, cowls, amongst other projects. Really cute! The Pearl Brioche stitch is a great introduction for Brioche knitting, because it’s easier, getting familiar with the main steps takes very little time and effort unlike Brioche… … Which rumor has it is the reason so many people decide to study astrophysics instead…  So, let’s get started!

    Knitting patterns for variegated yarns (Part 1): Star stitch

    March 24, 2020 /

    I’m happy today, I’m starting a new series of tutorials: Knitting stitch patterns for variegated yarns. Not much of my collection uses multi colored yarns, but I just discovered an interesting brand, and I love this cotton yarn… So I decided to research and swatch, experimenting with what kind of stitches work best with these cool variegated fibers. I was drawn to this subject as there is a lot of other stuff out there that fails to capture the true potential of this beautiful yarn. Why? Because we need to choose the right stitch pattern while working with the fabulous color mixtures. Otherwise, two things can happen: Either the stitch…

    How to knit the Sand stitch pattern: Super easy and it doesn’t curl

    March 5, 2020 /

    Today you’ll learn how to knit an adorable pattern: The Sand stitch; ideal for beginners because it’s super easy, yet full of texture, and it doesn’t curl. The Sand stitch is a lovely option for knitting baby clothing, as well as cowls, sweaters and blankets. It’s everything but complicated: Only four rows, and two of them are knit rows; it shares the same DNA as the Seed stitch, but I think it’s easier, if you are just starting to knit.

    Slipped Honeycomb stitch: Ideal for knitting hats, cowls, and sweaters

    February 20, 2020 /

    In today’s tutorial, you’ll learn to knit the Slipped Honeycomb stitch, a simple version of the traditional Honeycomb pattern. The Slipped Honeycomb stitch pattern is created by knitting eight rows, combining knits, purls, and slipping one stitch purl-wise every now and then. Some of these rows are the same, so it’s not complicated at all.  This is a spongy stitch, it has a cozy and warm texture to it, great for knitting cowls, hats, sweaters, and even a blanket (if you add a lovely edge on each side). This swatch is knitted using 100% Superwash Merino wool And my favorite wooden needles Abbreviations CO: Cast on RS: Right side of…

    The Fuchsia Flower stitch: Cable stitch lesson 1

    In today’s tutorial, you’ll learn a new knitting technique using this special pattern: The Fuchsia Flower stitch. Easy to knit, reversible (identical on both sides), it has a great texture to it, and a perfect stitch to knit the sleeves of a chunky cardigan! One of the advantages that I really enjoy of this stitch is that from the 10 rows that form the pattern, most of them include the same steps (the even rows are equal, and the odds rows are almost always equal). And the cable technique is required only in row 9… this makes this stitch easy to memorize, light and fun to knit. There is something…

    Bumpy stitch: Reversible, for knitting edges that don’t curl

    January 31, 2020 /

    In today’s tutorial, you’ll learn a reversible stitch, identical on both sides; the Bumpy stitch. Perfect for knitting scarves, blankets, and cowls. It’s also an option for knitting edges that don’t curl…Normally, when we knit a scarf, a rectangular shawl or a blanket, and we want to make an edge, I don’t know why but we always seem to end up making the Seed, Moss or Garter stitch. The Bumpy stitch is a lovely alternative if we want to knit something not so common. I like it also for knitting the hem and cuffs of a jacket (Chanel style). It’s anything but complicated: There are no increases nor decreases. The…

    Horizontal slipped stitch: A reversible, two-row repeat knitting pattern

    January 24, 2020 /

    In this tutorial, you’ll learn a pretty stitch: The Horizontal Slipped stitch. This pattern is quite delicate, elegant, yet easy to knit: a two-row repeat stitch that combines knits and purls while slipping a couple of stitches. It’s a unisex and reversible stitch (both sides look beautiful, although they are not identical), ideal for knitting women’s and men’s cowls, scarves and sweaters. Before recording the video tutorial I knitted several swatches using different yarn qualities and thicknesses… And my suggestion is to use a mildly thin yarn, for example, DK or light worsted weight yarn, for US 6 (4 mm) knitting needles. And this swatch was knitted using one of…

    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…
