@@lindsypenney3064 awe thank you- I just used kfb and kbf for this. They work well with garter stitch.

@@AnjeBury I haven’t created the written pattern yet sorry. I did answer the measurements and squares question in another comment, let me find that and let you know.

Ok it is 30” x 40” so 76cm x 101cm. The squares are 7 wide by 9 long. The beauty of this pattern is that you can make it any dimensions you want and in any yarn. You could make it square rather than rectangular too- it’s all up to you.

Also there is a separate video for the edge stitch, and the border can be any width you want too. It’s more of a recipe than a pattern.

@@patternandcraft Hi, yes after I posted the comment I saw the other comments you had answered. Sorry about that but thank you for getting back to me anyway. I am enjoying the pattern as it's very easy but looks great. The yarn I'm using does appear to be making slightly larger squares than yours but I may end up sticking to the 7 by 9 anyway. I Will have to see how it looks as it pieces together. I will look at the border video as well, thanks!

@@bellapupella1263 yes, you would just need to swap to purls and slipping with yarn in back for every other row so it would no longer be the same repeat or no-purl.

@@patternandcraft So the R2 should be [sl1wyif, k1], p3, *sl1wyib, p3 ripetere da * until 2 stitches left, [sl1wyif, k1] ?

@ you wouldn’t do those edge stitches if working in the round, so eliminate those, the rest sounds correct.

@ and you’ll need stitches in a multiple of 4

@@patternandcraft Yes, in the round I will remove the first and last part related to the edge. Thanks. I will try soon.

@@NyshimaFelix about 30 inches by 40 inches

@@stonecrestquilt I will have to experiment with the best way to square off but that would be a beautiful option- will let you know if I figure it out. Thanks for watching!

@@patternandcraft Will be a home run!!

@@delladearest2511 do you chain 1 first or just work a hdc directly from the last granny cluster?

@ no chain one, only a half double

@ fun, I’ll give that a try, thanks!

@@thriftythreader5998 yes

@@НадійнаУкраїнка haha sorry I’m allergic to nail polish and more focused on creating beautiful things than being beautiful 🤷‍♀️

@@tori4tori I call it slip stitch faux rib but the real name is cartridge belt rib stitch or false fisherman’s rib or faux brioche

@ When I first saw it on your video I had assumed it was Fisherman’s. It’s fascinating. Do you know it’s traditional origin? Thank you so much.

@ I do not- I figured it out on my own but then found out it was an existing stitch.

@@patternandcraft thanks so much for this.

Panic over 😅. I forgot to slip one stitch at the beginning of the row before counting in the pattern. Sorry to have bothered you.

@@marilyncookson7397 I think it’s supposed to be repeats of 4 plus 3 plus 4 stitches for the edge stitch so a cast on of 31 stitches would have been ideal, 32 is 1 too many stitches. 4x6=24 +3=27 +4=31

@@petrakuhn5853 not yet, I do plan to do a series on cast ons and bind offs in the future, but I think there’s a tutorial for it available somewhere on KZbin

@@barbaraZ-z9m yay! Love that it helped!

@@jeancarter7732 I don’t notice an issue since it’s only worked over a short span - one could take the time to follow the exact path of the yarn but in that case I would worry then that you’re basically doubling the thickness of each stitch as if you knit with a double strand of yarn so would be more noticeable, and it would take longer and be more difficult to do - but you could definitely try it and see which you prefer. I’ve also seen ends woven in diagonally (I saw after I made my video, otherwise I would have included that too) which could maybe be better for maintaining the elasticity rather than working between rows. There’s many options and techniques available to try, and some may be better suited to some projects than others.

it works with stockinet but it does still curl, so it makes a nice edge but does not eliminate the curling that stockinet tends to have at the edges.

@@latitude1904 actually… so I just tested something out… if you add 1 purl stitch right after the edge stitch at the start and just before the edge stitch at the end for the right (knit) side, and 1 knit stitch right after the edge stitch at the start and just before the edge stitch at the end for the wrong (purl) side of your flat stockinet then it creates a beautiful edge that does not curl, but it is no longer identical front to back. The front looks the same as the normal edge stitch does because that single purl stitch basically disappears on the front, but on the back side you’ll have the slip stitch edge plus the knit stitch so it looks different on the back, a bit wider.

@@mariannehanel4563 I’m not sure yet because I have not finished my scarf but I will add this information once I know how much yarn it uses.

@@cbtringali6799 thank you! I’m not sure if it does, I just kind of made it up and haven’t seen it before, but maybe!

@ then you can give it a name!

In german we call It "falsches Patent". In english you can call it "False Fishermans Rip" or "faux brioche" .

cartridge belt rib stitch

@@dorothyrockwell8157 thank you! I didn’t know the name, that is it!

@@adenabrown1793 the blanket is 7 squares wide and 9 long so 63 total, 32 with the color center, 31 with the white center. But can of course be made to whatever size you prefer.

@@shannonrossi8076 I started my knitting journey earlier this year and it was definitely a struggle- hang in there and keep trying, eventually it starts to feel natural (after a lot of practice). Good luck and thanks so much for watching and subscribing 😁

@@shannonrossi8076 also yes the cats really like to make knitting more challenging don’t they 😹

@@shannonrossi8076 holst Garn Alpakka Silke would also be lovely with this- I used that initially but didn’t like the color I had on hand so frogged it and went with the Manos Serena yarn. Holst Garn Haya would probably be lovely too, though that’s not as airy

@@dianeoconnell3686 yes ideally, but I think you could fudge it a bit if you were off by a stitch or 2, for example you could skip one of the skipped stitches here and there to get the math to work out.

@ that’s what I thought. Thank you!!!

@@dianeoconnell3686 no problem! You could also skip an extra stitch - whichever looks better with your particular yarn/tension/project.

@@ann5101 I’m so glad you liked it!
