16 Garter Stitch Patterns You Won’t Want to Miss

July 6, 2022 by AllFreeKnitting

Garter stitch is one of the easiest stitches in knitting because it doesn’t require you to alternate the kinds of stitches you’re doing. You can just do the same thing over and over. It’s great for when you’re figuring out how to knit and need to practice the basics and get the movements down pat. (I’m just learning how to knit garter stitch myself by working on an easy scarf knitting pattern.) It’s also great for more advanced knitters who want a simple project to work on while doing other things, like watching TV or chatting with friends and family. Because knitting garter stitch is so simple and versatile, I’ve collected 16 Garter Stitch Knitting Patterns You Won’t Want to Miss for you to enjoy. Organized by skill level, you should be able to find something to suit your tastes in these patterns, whether you’re just starting out or are a seasoned knitter.
