Eye of Partridge Stitch

Sample knit with DK weight yarn on US 7 needles
Cast on a multiple of 2

Row 1: k1, sl 1 pwise
Rows 2 and 4: purl
Row 3: sl 1 pwise, k1

Repeat these four rows for pattern.

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.

Happy knitting!
