Saturday Stitch: Bud Stitch

 Hello Friends,

I hope you are doing well. It has been a busy week for me and so happy to be here today for a Saturday stitch post after not posting stitch posts for a couple of weeks. Today I knitted the bud stitch. It is a fun stitch and a 12 row repeat. A nice detail to any garment and easy pattern to follow along and knit to.

Pattern:

Cast on Multiples of 6 + 5

Row 1 (RS): p5, *k1, yo, p5; rep from * to end

Row 2: k5, *p2, k5; rep from * to end

Row 3: p5, * k2, p5; rep from * to end

Repeat the last two rows once more.

Row 6: k5, *p2tog, k5; rep from * to end

Row 7: p2, *k1, yo, p5; rep from * to last 3 sts, k1, yo, p2

Row 8: k2, * p2, k5; rep from * to last 4 sts, p2, k2

Row 9: p2, *k2, p5; rep from * to last 4 sts, k2, p2

Repeat the last two rows once more.

Row 12: k2, *p2tog, k5; rep from * to last 4 sts, p2tog, k2

12 rows make up pattern

Thank you for visiting my blog today! I hope that you like this stitch and give it a try yourself! I love doing these posts because it always challenges me to learn a new stitch and along with it, I learn new knitting techniques and hope to improve my skills as a knitter.

Have a great day and stay safe!
