Stylish Stockinette Stitch Patterns

April 24, 2014 by AllFreeKnitting

 

Stylish-Stockinette-400Stockinette stitch is a classic; it’s a basic stitch, one of the first most knitters learn, yet those little v’s lined up in rows somehow manage to look marvelously elegant.   If there’s one thing that you can learn from Stockinette stitch, it’s that you don’t have to be fancy to look great.  Sometimes simple can go a long way.  These Stockinette stitch patterns are stylish favorites that will be enjoyable to knit and wear.

 

Knitting lace, cables, or colorwork can be fun and exciting.  But every knitter gets to the point where she just wants a simple project to work on.  These patterns, which all largely feature Stockinette stitch, are perfect palette cleansers for experienced knitters.  Learning knitters can also learn something from these projects; finishing off an easier sweater or cardigan is a great way to gain confidence as a knitter.  With summer on the way, you might not want to devote a lot of time to knitting, and these patterns, with minimal to zero complicated elements, are easy to pick up and put down—there’s no reason to mark off your row on a chart when you’re just doing Stockinette!
