One of the essential stitches for our Santa Stars is the Knitting Stitch. It is the perfect stitch for sweaters, mittens, pajamas and creates the perfect "knit" look. The stitch is a braid-like, knitted pattern created by double rows of straight stitches slanted in opposite directions. There are many different versions of knitting stitch as seen below.
Take a look at some of our favorite uses of knitting stitch in our recent projects! Try it out on your next piece!
