Stockinette Stitch<\/h1>\n\n\n\n
<\/div>\n\n\n\n

Stockinette is a knitting fundamental; you will find it in nearly every pattern you get; it produces the standard knit v-pattern on the right side and a bumpy purl pattern on the wrong side. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Stockinette, when knitting flat, it is a mix of 1 row knit stitches, 1 row purl stitches because you must flip your work, making you work on the right side first and the wrong side second. If you are knitting in the round, you will only be using either purls or knit stitches (you don’t flip your work in the round), depending on whether you are knitting the right or wrong side. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Knit Stitch:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Insert the right needle into the first loop on the left needle from front to back, wrap the yarn, pull a new loop through, and slid the old stitch off. Continue that until your finish your row. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Purl Stitch:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Ensure the working yarn is in the front of your work, insert your right-hand needle into the first stitch on the left-hand needle from right to left (front to back), with the right needle sitting on top of the left needle, wrap the yarn around the tip of the right-hand needle in a counterclockwise motion, pull the new loop back through the stitch with the right needle and slip the old stitch off the left-hand needle. This results in the reverse of a knit stitch. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

<\/div>\n\n\n\n

Note:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Stockinette has a tendency to curl in on itself while you\u2019re knitting; this can be solved by blocking your knitting when you’re done or when you just want to double check the length.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
