Stockinette Stitch, Twisted

July 2, 2009 — alyse

Yarn: Bouton d’Or : Cérès, Color: Naturel (worsted)
Wraps Per Inch: 14 wpi
Needles: 4.5 mm / 7 US / 7 BWG
Gauge: 22 sts. & 29 rows to 10cm (4″)
Pattern: Stockinette Stitch, Twisted
Stitch Count Repeat: Multiple of 1 st.
Book: A Treasury of Knitting Patterns
Page: 10

Comments, if any: Creates a denser than normal fabric, though still very soft and supple. As with Stockinette tends to up and down from cast on and cast off edges or if held by cast on edge, sides curl towards back. Would make a nice jacket or vest.
