What I thought:
I really enjoyed knitting this stitch pattern. The pattern was easy to learn and follow. I think that this pattern kept me interested because it is repetitive, but the pattern changes when moving stitches to either the front or back. I really enjoyed this stitch and will try to incorporate it into my knitting projects.
Knitter level:
Beginner: The stitch is easy to follow and the repetition is easy to learn after a few pattern repeats.
Thank you so much for visiting my blog, it is always nice to read your comments and get your feedback. Have you knitting this stitch pattern before? if so, what did you knit with the pattern?
Have a great day!
What will you do with all your sampler pieces when you've finished? Looks good, Cathy x
ReplyDeleteHi Cathy, when I started making stitches I thought I would make a blanket with all of the squares of stitches I made. Now I have just kept them as reminders of the stitches and they will inspire me one day to use them in a pattern when I am in the project planning process. I might do something with them one day, for now they are just pieces of inspiration. Thank you for visiting! :) x
