We like bringing to the blog easy stitches. Today’s stitch is perfect for those nights when the temperature begins to decrease just a little bit, or if you live in the mountains where the night is fresh. The perfect lace for your summer garments.
For this step-by-step we used one of our Easy Breezy skeins and beechwood knitting needles sizes Us 8 (5mm).
As usual, before beginning we like to give you a list of the techniques we will use in case you want to check them out or if you have any doubts:
- How to cast on
- How to work the knit stitch
- How to work the purl stitch
- Yarn over
- How to work 2 stitches together
- Slip, knit, pass over
Let’s begin!
Cast on a number of stitches multiple of 6, and then, add 3 more stitches.
Row 1
Start the row by knitting 2. Next, *SKPO, yarn over, knit 1, yarn over, knit 2 together, knit 1*. Repeat from * to * until there is 1 stitch left in the needle, knit it.
Row 2
Purl all stitches
Continue working rows 1 and 2 until your work reaches the desired length.
We love this summery stitch. We want to see where you use it. Don’t forget to share it with the knitter community with the hashtag #weareknitters.
See you next time!
