The Garter ribbing knit stitch pattern hello I'm Kristen and welcome back
to my channel STUDIO KNIT. This garter ribbing knit
stitch pattern is a two row repeat it's a really easy level project that is a
great choice for knitting up simple blankets pillows scarves and more this
is an easy level pattern it's perfect for beginners because it uses only knits
and pearls this garter ribbing pattern creates columns of the smooth stuck in
it stitch there's two rows there and it's separated by two rows of the Garter
stitch texture and I want to point out that in these samples they have been
lightly blocked which is allowing this ribbing pattern to lie flat and not
bunch up tightly and if you're excited to knit this pattern up do me a favor
like up this video it really helps me out and so for our materials you can use
any yarn and appropriately sized knitting needles that you would like
you'll also want to have some little scissors and a tapestry needle on hand
I'll be knitting up this pattern in the video in just a moment but I want to
show you where you can find the written pattern so it is always available on my
website totally for free I also have my brand new knit stitch pattern book both
in print and digital so you can find the book on Amazon and this particular
pattern is on page 10 of my book I provide the knitting chart as well as
written instructions on knitting flat on straight needles as well as in the round
on circular needles and this little symbol shows that it is not a reversible
pattern so that means the design and texture that we see on the front if you
flip it over on the back which is the wrong side
will not have an identical design it will look different and it is also a
downloadable ebook for you as well with all 50 knit and purl patterns so let's
knit it up we begin by casting on multiples of four plus two so you can
either use a slip knot or the no slip knot method to do the longtail cast on
and you'll do multiples of four four four until your very last stitches will
be just two stitches row one is knitting all so that just means that every single
stitch on this first row that little yarn tail always gets me and the first
row on this pattern is the right side of our work and of course I am knitting on
straight needles so we are following the pattern for flat if you'd like to knit
this in the round I have that written out on my website and book as well and
you just knit all the way down to the very end of the row so here are those
two last little stitches there and Row two we're going to begin with purling
two so you'll see in the instructions P two is pearl - so we're purling one
stitch and then we're purling the second stitch and then those little stars the
asterisks that means that we repeat the pattern between those little asterisks
all the way down the row so K - isn't it - so knitting two stitches and then
bringing our yarn to the front of the work two purl two stitches that is P -
and we just repeat k2 p2 all the way down until we get to the
last four stitches and we just finished that up again K - knitting two stitches
and purling two right fare between the asterisks which means
that we repeat that pattern to the end of the row and this is a two row pattern
so that's it it doesn't get any easier you just continue on with the row one
knitting row one knitting row two and continue on until your piece is the link
that you desire I hope you are inspired to knit up this garter ribbing knit
stitch pattern I have so many other great patterns for you to check out as
