Twisted Stockinette Rib

Sample knit with Sapphires-n-Purls Merino DK on US Size 7 needles


Multiple of 3

Row 1 (RS): *k2tog, leaving sts on needle, k first st again, slip both from needle, k1; rep from *
Rows 2 and 4: purl
Row 3: *k1, k2tog, leaving sts on needle, k first st again, slip both from needle; rep from *

Repeat these four rows for the pattern.  This stitch will curl, so you may want to add a garter/seed stitch border depending on what you are knitting.

Happy Knitting!

  1. Oh, I like this stitch. I think it wants to be a dishcloth for practice. Thanks.

  5. Looks lovely and so easy. The way you out the yarn round the needle looked a little strange. Are you left handed?

  6. A quick thank you for the link to the needles, WOW! I ordered the complete set... Straights, Double-pointed and Circulars for only $18 and change!! Yes, they're from China but have already gotten the straights and dp and the circulars should maybe be here today? Something like 5 days or so, I am SO stoked! LOL, doesn't take much to make my day, right? Anyway, thanks again for the heads up :)

  7. This is a lovely stitch - would you say it has the 'bunching' quality of a rib, or does the diagonal offset that a bit? This one will go in my knit sampler, for sure.
    Thanks!
