Moire Stitch

 

Sample knit with worsted weight yarn on US 7 needles

Depending on how you plan to use the stitch, you may want to consider adding a few extra stitches for a border to neaten up the edges, and make it easier to work the sl 1-k1-yo-psso at the beginning and end of Rows 1 and 3.

Slipped stitches are slipped purlwise.  Pattern begins on right side.

Multiple of 2

Rows 1 and 3: *sl 1, k1, yo, psso both the k1 and yo

Rows 2, 4 and 6: purl all stitches

Row 5: knit all stitches

Repeat these six rows for the pattern.

Happy Knitting!
