Sample knit with Cascade 220 on US Size 8 needles |
This is easier to do than it looks, I promise. It might feel awkward at first, but with practice you will be able to do this in no time. Practice and patience.
Multiple of 8 stitches
Rows 1-4: Knit
Rows 5 and 11: K1 *Insert needle into next stitch, wrapping yarn 4 times before pulling the yarn through* Knit last stitch
Row 6: *Slip 8 stitches, dropping the extra wraps as you do so. Be sure the yarn is held to the back of the work when slipping. Insert left needle into the first four slipped stitches, and pass them over the last four stitches and onto the left needle. Now, slip the other four stitches to the left needle. Knit these eight stitches. *
Rows 7-10: Knit
Row 12: (To be worked as in Row 6 ) Slip 4 stitches to right needle, dropping extra wraps. Cross first two stitches over the last two, placing them on the left needle; place last two stitches on left needle and knit all four stitches. *Slip eight, cross four, placing all stitches back on left needle and knit* Slip 4, cross two, knit last four stitches.
Repeat these 12 rows for the pattern. Here is the video.
Happy Knitting!
