The Weekly Swatch: Wrapped Openwork Lace Columns (Knit Stitch Tutorial)

Wrapped Lace Openwork Columns Knit Stitch Tutorial

I am still in love with openwork knit stitches and have prepared another super simple openwork knit stitch for this week's weekly swatch. 

This knit stitch is worked over two rows on a multiple of three plus two stitches, making this an extremely simple, yet highly versatile lace ribbing stitch. This stitch looks (and feels) entirely different, depending on the yarn used. To showcase the look of this stitch in different yarn weights, I knitted my swatches in the images below with Araucania Botany Lace (sock yarn) and Rowan Bamboo Soft.

(Requires a multiple of 3 plus 2 stitches.)


Row 1 (right side): K1, *yo, sl1 (purlwise), k2, pass slipped stitch over the last two knit stitches, rep. from * to last stitch, k1.

Row 2 (wrong side): Purl all stitches.

Repeat Rows 1 to 2 for pattern.
