| Knotted Open Work, Lily Sugar n Cream, US Size 6 needles |
Knotted Open Work was a requested stitch, and when I was looking through my stitch books to see if it was known by another name, I found Open Star Stitch. They are almost identical, except that Open Star Stitch is more knotty and textured.
Both are worked on a multiple of 3 stitches, plus 3
Open Star Stitch:
Row 1: (Wrong Side) K2, *YO, K3 - then pass the first stitch over the second and third sts* Repeat from * to last stitch, K1
Row 2: Knit all stitches
Row 3: K1, *K3 - then pass the first stitch over the second and third sts, YO* Repeat from * to last two stitches, K2
Row 4: Knit all stitches
Repeat these 4 Rows for pattern

Here is a video with both stitches. Enjoy!
