Basket stitch knitting pattern (Revised Tutorial 100% correct-English & Continental) - So Woolly

[@Carola-By-The-Bay]

I’m a very beginning Knitter, coming from Crochet. I’m glad to discover your videos. Instructions are clear, visual is closeup, and you have a pleasant voice. Thank you for demonstrating in Continental style.🧶🌻

[@sowoolly]

Thank you and welcome 🤗

[@puff.stitch]

me to hahaha.. wanna try knitting

[@trinleywangmo]

Started knitting again after multiple very long (more than a decade the first break) breaks from knitting and completely forgot to knit/purl from the back loop of the last stitch to avoid those huge holes. I pull my yarn, but the tension never really comes out right, because my health makes knitting steady difficult (why I'm practicing). I found your YT channel today and love these patterns, and never guessed how much I would learn from a single short pattern video. THANK YOU❣

[@sowoolly]

Thank you! What a lovely comment 🤗

[@kanikagupta9226]

Loved this pattern. I am making it in a cap I am knitting for my husband. Thanks.

[@sowoolly]

You’re welcome! Enjoy your knitting 🤗

[@SmadarPrager]

I wanted to thank you for all the tutorials and free paterns. I also wanted to comment: in continental style there is another way to purl -- counterclockwise. In that way 1. Less yarn is being used. 2. Less manipulation of the left hand is needed. And 3. When knitting the other side (ws) the front leg of the stitches leans more to the left, and the right leg (back of the loop) is open and ready for the knit stitch. In 'regular' knitting, in any style all loops present the front leg to knit or purl. 4. There is distinctive feel to the putl or knit stitches that you can feel with the tip of your fingers even when not looking at the work. Much less oopsies....😊😊

[@nitameeker7766]

That's so cute if I get good at knitting I'll try it

Thanks very much for your beautiful Tutorial, it's really easy and beautiful. previous watching wasn't as understanding, as this Video

[@courag1]

Lovely pattern and thank you for doing the demo for both Continental and English knitters. I knit both and I knit English in the more efficient way, to Flick instead of Throw.

[@sp4874]

Thank you! Been knitting for a week today (inspired by Tom Daley) and this is my new favourite stitch pattern. I really like the slip stitch on row 3! Nice to have a rest from purling and I get through that row in no time. You are right that this pattern is easy to memorise, is easy to do and looks great. 🪢 🧶 🧵 🪡

[@karinberryman2009]

The vast majority of people who bother to consider a knitter, assume if Grandma could do it, it has to be as intellectually basic as an illiterate farmer’s wife could be expected to handle. Truth is, high achievers, ambitious and creatively driven intellectuals are crazy about working out this 3 dimensional, multi coloured pieces of architecture. You’re in that category for certain! It takes a very clear, focussed mind to conceive such artistry in your meticulous and rhythmical manner!

[@anniejayakumar7896]

So well explained, patiently. Thank you.

Can you explain why we need the purl set up row ? Would it work to just begin with the knit row ?

[@Nanaonhotwheels]

Love your tutorials, you make them so easy. Thank you for the Diagonal, just started a wide scarf, however, now I’ve found this stitch….l think I changed my mind. 😖 xx

[@sowoolly]

Thank you and good luck 🍀

[@carwai]

Rows 3 and 4, is it knit in the purls and slip in the slips?

[@harshitkhanna1484]

Good thanks

[@maritvansanten]

I love the stitch and your tutorials! I have one question about the last stitch of the set up row. You say that you like to purl or knit every last stitch in the back loop, but only show that in the set up row. Is this something you do only with a set up row?

[@sowoolly]

Thank you! Exactly, only on the first row (which in this case is the set up row). It’s a way to tighten up this last stitch, that normally is too loose 😉

[@Zarlju]

Hi ❤ love the pattern cannot find where to get this little pattern can you help you say on the link below but I cannot find it

Ive tried it again but still doesnt look like the pattern. The wrong side looks different and the set up row creats a different border. Dont know where the problem is

[@isabelledsilva9513]

Can I have a pattern book so I can follow

[@sowoolly]

I’m working on it 😉

[@ebonylocks9234]

It might get confusing because there's no row 0? The last stitch thru the back loop is how you do it is confusing also. Thanks for sharing it's a beautiful stitch. I'm a crochet trying to learn how to knit.

[@sowoolly]

The setup row or row cero is not so frequent. Working the last stitch through the back loop is optional, it works better for me 😉 Enjoy your knitting journey!

[@susanlucero3530]

Hi, in the finished sample at beginning and end of video, has it been blocked and stretched out? I've tried it with 2 to 3 repeat rounds and my work doesn't look like your finished sample at all. Please rescue me huhu

[@sowoolly]

Hi, what kind of yarn and needle size are you using?

[@susanlucero3530]

@@sowoolly 100% acrylic and 5mm needle. I was trying out the pattern in a bigger swatch.

[@rubygray7749]

She didn't stress how you need to keep the tension correct. This might be your problem. Every time you slip a stitch, you need to ensure that the yarn is not pulled tight across the gap. Always keep the stitches on your right needle spread normally so that the yarn at the back is not tight.

[@susanlucero3530]

Thank you, Ruby Gray. I"ll try it again soon.

[@lee7488]

Hi 👋🏼 I am a beginner with the basket stitch. I have finally gotten the stitch however, when adding it to a vest I am making I have had to start over and over because it comes out on the wrong side. What am I doing wrong? How can I add the basket stitch on a pattern already started? Thank you.

[@homebace2621]

I am a crocheter and new to knitting. Thank you for showing continental style. I'm confused though by this pattern. If I repeat from row 1 every time I do not get the small squares. I wonder what I'm doing wrong?

[@sowoolly]

It’s a four-row repeat pattern. Please take a look at the written instructions: sowoolly.net/how-to-knit-the-basket-stitch-chunky-and-cozy/

Thanks mam🙏

[@sowoolly]

My pleasure 🤗

[@carla109]

I love the look of this stitch. My question is, you purled through the back loop on the last stitch of row zero, but not any of the other rows. Is there a reason for only doing it in the set-up row?

[@lynnecampbell5608]

Often the last stitch from the cast on row is big. Kabob tightens it up

Pls where will I find the design I can’t follow properly the video

[@Anonymas-x3f]

When knitting a larger piece. Will you just continue the pattern of knit one, slip one, knit one, slip one and so on. Or will you have to do 4 rows knit all and then start again?

Thank you for this and all your tutorials!

Yes i wanted this pattern,shall use all cotyon yarn and make two connected oven pads

[@Rouseycat919]

The pattern demo is not the same as what it’s meant to be.....

[@Leslie-karren]

Can this pattern be adjusted to use 2 colors?

[@theoneandonlysingqueen910]

Do you make a slip knot before adding the loops?

[@sowoolly]

Not if I’m doing the long tail cast on method

[@annmoran4554]

what size needles do i use to knit a baby's blanket

[@sowoolly]

It depends on the fiber you’ll be using. Knit a swatch first to decide 😉

[@farzanaghani9981]

I just wanted to ask why there is a row 0 when you said to follow the 4 row pattern (rows 1-4)? Thank you

[@perfectblueeeee]

because the main part of the pattern is a 4 row repeat, the only part of the pattern that should be repeated is the rows 1-4 ❤️

[@pupmusic-vms3812]

How many cast on stitches for a baby blanket?

[@sowoolly]

That depends. Please take a look at this tutorial: kzbin.info/www/bejne/qKeVYqF-n8mkY6c

[@themuscleman2803]

What happens after the row of one knit slip one, one knit slip one.. Do you just continue like that? Or do you knit all and then start the process again

[@jrb4347]

I’m so confused how she does her cast on - can someone help ?

[@bejai1962]

Unless I'm doing something wrong, this is not a stretchy fabric so I don't see using it to knit a sweater. However, it will make fantastic dish/wash cloths!

[@momofive1]

I wouldn't think it would be a stretchy fabric, but it is dense and would make a great hat, scarf or cowl.

[@CarruthersDruthers]

Thank you for mentioning your experience with this stitch, as I am on the hunt for different and good texture stitches to use for my washcloths. ♡ I've tried using 10 row panels of seed stitch, 1x1 rib stitch and stockinette - with a 5 row and 5 stitch garter stitch border.
