| Sample knit with worsted weight yarn on US 7 needles |
This stitch looks great in any weight or fiber, but I think it would look absolutely fabulous in a slinky, drapey fiber like tencel for a summer stole! Soybean or silk yarn would also be nice for a summer project.
Depending on how you use this stitch, you may want to add some stitches to the sides to neaten things up. This would make a great scarf, or border on the bottom of a sweater. So many possibilities!
If you use this stitch pattern in a project, hop over to my facebook page and share a pic, I'd love to see your work!
