Learn how to p2togtbl or purl two together through back loops, this knitting decrease is most often done on the wrong side of your knitting project!
A pattern is a form of nursery decor. It is an elegant but also fresh and simple pattern in the technique of lace knitting. It is made in two parts. The top part is a purl part and the bottom part is a yarn part. The knit part can be left open or closed depending on how you want to knit it.
Back when I first started knitting, I kept seeing "Slip the first stitch for a nice, finished edge". Well, I slipped the first stitch, but didn't see that it made any difference from when I didn't slip the first stitch. I couldn't figure out what all the fuss was over slipping the first stitch! One day, when I was just playing around trying to think of something to knit, I figured I'd give slipping that first stitch another whirl. This time, instead of slipping the stitch with the yarn in the back, I slipped it purlwise, with the yarn in front. As I continued to knit, I was amazed at the lovely, braided edge I had. All that time I had been slipping the stitch knitwise. I could have been saved a lot of frustration had I been told how to slip the first stitch, not just "slip the first stitch". For some reason, the how is never included in instructions, at least not that I have ever seen. So, here are some pictures and videos on getting a nice clean edge on your knitting. Picture A shows the edges of a fabric that have not had the first stitch slipped. There really isn't anything wrong with this edge, it is just a matter of taste. If you like the bumpy edge, then don't slip the first stitch. Pictures B and C show the result of slipping the first stitch; there are several ways to get these edges. For Picture B, you would : Slip the first stitch purlwise, with the yarn in front, and knit the last stitch OR Slip the first stitch knitwise, with the yarn in the back, and purl the last stitch Either of these methods will give you the lovely, twisted stitch (or braid as I like to call it) along the edges of your work. This is my favorite edge. For Picture C, slipping the first stitch purlwise with the yarn in front, and knitting the last stitch through the back loop will give you an untwisted, open edge. This is looser than the twisted edge stitches, so may not be appropriate for all projects. (Which is why swatching is an important step!) A: Unslipped edge stitches B: Slipped stitch edge C: Slipped stitch, open edge I have also made a video demonstrating each of these methods. Picture B is a wash cloth I knit, and all edges are the same, including the cast on and bind off. To achieve this lovely border, in addition to slipping the first stitch, you will do the crochet cast on - this matches the standard knit bind off. Below are the videos of slipping stitches, and the Crochet Cast On. (And just a side note regarding this cast on - if you were to use waste yarn instead of a needle, this would give you a provisional cast on, in which the waste yarn would be removed at some point leaving you with live stitches. I have never utilized a provisional cast on because I am scared of having live stitches hanging around. I plan on overcoming this fear soon, and will post more on provisional cast ons and their uses as I learn about them.) In addition to creating a nice, neat edge, slipping the first stitch is immensely helpful if you will be picking up stitches along the edge, or sewing pieces of fabric together! I hope this has been helpful. Enjoy!
the herringbone stitch row 1 cast on as many stitches as you need knit 1 slip 1 purl wise knit 1 yo pass the slipped stitch over both stitches all the way across k1 row 2 purl two together but don't remove the stitches purl once again into the first stitch on the needle slip the stitches off do this all the way across that's it that's all there is to the herringbone stitch simple easy so effective for so little effort don't you think!!! --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- and the one I can't remember!!! I was trying to remember how to do a stitch that I can't find anywhere I couldn't remember the right combination and I came up with this it's sort of like a lover's knot but not quite cast on an uneven count knit 1 yo knit 2 together yo k2tog that's it over and over it's the same for all rows until you have it as long as you want it I had a thought, if you wrap the yarn over twice, you'll have a bigger hole/space and if you use thin yarn and big needles..... :0 !!! many combinations for a stitch that came out of nowhere :) the end enjoy!!!
