The Weekly Swatch: Diagonal Zig Zag Knit Stitch

I am in love with the texture of this diagonal zig-zag knit stitch. 

Knit and purl stitches are all you need to create these diagonal zig zags and the resulting stitch motif is fully reversible. 

A perfect match for chunky cotton yarns and knitted dishcloths.

The Weekly Swatch: Garland Lace Knit Stitch

 

With the Garland Lace Knit Stitch I am returning to simple, traditional lace in this instalment of the weekly swatch. 

The Garland Knit Stitch is a simple beginner lace knit stitch. The motif is created over sixteen rows, requires a multiple of 6 plus 1 stitches and all wrong side rows are purled throughout. 

The Weekly Swatch: Faggot Knit Stitch

 

I have another 'no purl lace' knit stitch to add to the collection in this week's weekly swatch. 

It's the Faggot Lace Knit Stitch. 

This is an incredibly simple one-row repeat stitch motif, which creates an openwork lace mesh fabric.

More 'no purl' lace knit stitches are available here.
