Moire Stitch

 

Sample knit with worsted weight yarn on US 7 needles

Depending on how you plan to use the stitch, you may want to consider adding a few extra stitches for a border to neaten up the edges, and make it easier to work the sl 1-k1-yo-psso at the beginning and end of Rows 1 and 3.

Slipped stitches are slipped purlwise.  Pattern begins on right side.

Multiple of 2

Rows 1 and 3: *sl 1, k1, yo, psso both the k1 and yo

Rows 2, 4 and 6: purl all stitches

Row 5: knit all stitches

Repeat these six rows for the pattern.

Happy Knitting!

St. John's Wort

 

Sample knit with US 9 needles and worsted weight yarn

Multiple of 6

Row 1 (rs): *sl 1 purlwise, k2, psso the 2 knit sts, k3

Row 2: *p4, yo, p1

Row 3: *k3, sl 1 purlwise, k2, psso the 2 knit sts

Row 4: *p1, yo, p4

Repeat these four rows for the pattern.

You may want to add a border, or work this stitch in between other stitch patterns; because of the rows ending/beginning with slipped stitches being passed over, the edges are not even or neat.  Another option is to work the uneven edges in as a design feature, to use as buttonholes perhaps.

Happy Knitting!

This fabric does not lay flat and has sloppy edges; depending on how you use the stitch, you may want to add a border to neaten things up.
