2 Color Loop Stitch

 

Sample knit with DK yarn, US 8 needles

In my sample above, after my last repeat of the pattern, I worked Rows 1 and 2 once more, then worked the bind off so that the cast on and bind off edges match.

If you want the cast off edge worked in the second color, bind off after Row 6.  In the picture below, I've finished working Row 6 and would bind off at this point if I wanted the cast on and bind off edges to be different.

All slipped stitches are slipped purlwise, yarn in back

Multiple of 2 + 1

Row 1 (rs), Color A: knit

Row 2, Color A: purl

Row 3, Color B: k1 *sl 1, k1; rep from *

Repeat these 8 rows for the pattern.

Happy Knitting!
