I’m a very beginning Knitter, coming from Crochet. I’m glad to discover your videos. Instructions are clear, visual is closeup, and you have a pleasant voice. Thank you for demonstrating in Continental style.🧶🌻
Started knitting again after multiple very long (more than a decade the first break) breaks from knitting and completely forgot to knit/purl from the back loop of the last stitch to avoid those huge holes. I pull my yarn, but the tension never really comes out right, because my health makes knitting steady difficult (why I'm practicing). I found your YT channel today and love these patterns, and never guessed how much I would learn from a single short pattern video. THANK YOU❣
This question will quite clearly reveal that I am very much a beginner. I have watched the tutorial for this pattern at least 10 times and have looked up definitions for the abbreviation that I did not know. Then I have tried multiple times to get step 4 right so that I end up with 1 knit stitch at the end. Every time I ended up with 2 stitches left. Arg. Then last night, albeit, it was late and I ended up with 2 extra stitches so that my swatch was only 11 stitches, I now have 13. That's when I threw in the towel and decided I needed to contact you. Here is the instruction that has me befuddled: K1, wyif sl1 pw, yb. It seems straightforward enough and I happily move along until I get to the end. Sigh. Thank you for any help you can provide. I really love the pattern and do not want to give up on it.
The vast majority of people who bother to consider a knitter, assume if Grandma could do it, it has to be as intellectually basic as an illiterate farmer’s wife could be expected to handle. Truth is, high achievers, ambitious and creatively driven intellectuals are crazy about working out this 3 dimensional, multi coloured pieces of architecture. You’re in that category for certain! It takes a very clear, focussed mind to conceive such artistry in your meticulous and rhythmical manner!
Thank you! Been knitting for a week today (inspired by Tom Daley) and this is my new favourite stitch pattern. I really like the slip stitch on row 3! Nice to have a rest from purling and I get through that row in no time. You are right that this pattern is easy to memorise, is easy to do and looks great. 🪢 🧶 🧵 🪡
Lovely pattern and thank you for doing the demo for both Continental and English knitters. I knit both and I knit English in the more efficient way, to Flick instead of Throw.
Ive tried it again but still doesnt look like the pattern. The wrong side looks different and the set up row creats a different border. Dont know where the problem is
Hansen Hosni the wrong side does look differently from the right side I’ve just knitted a beautiful pale lemon scarf using this pattern it’s gorgeous hope this helps x
I love the stitch and your tutorials! I have one question about the last stitch of the set up row. You say that you like to purl or knit every last stitch in the back loop, but only show that in the set up row. Is this something you do only with a set up row?
Thank you! Exactly, only on the first row (which in this case is the set up row). It’s a way to tighten up this last stitch, that normally is too loose 😉
Hi! Next to the title of the video, you’ll see the word “more”. Click on it and the description box will appear. You’ll find the link to my website there 😉 Happy knitting❣️
I love the look of this stitch. My question is, you purled through the back loop on the last stitch of row zero, but not any of the other rows. Is there a reason for only doing it in the set-up row?
I love this pattern and the calm and gentle way that you have in the way that you teach. I do have a question and would like to email it to you, if that is possible. I could not find an address to use.
Hi, in the finished sample at beginning and end of video, has it been blocked and stretched out? I've tried it with 2 to 3 repeat rounds and my work doesn't look like your finished sample at all. Please rescue me huhu
She didn't stress how you need to keep the tension correct. This might be your problem. Every time you slip a stitch, you need to ensure that the yarn is not pulled tight across the gap. Always keep the stitches on your right needle spread normally so that the yarn at the back is not tight.
I am a crocheter and new to knitting. Thank you for showing continental style. I'm confused though by this pattern. If I repeat from row 1 every time I do not get the small squares. I wonder what I'm doing wrong?
Hi 👋🏼 I am a beginner with the basket stitch. I have finally gotten the stitch however, when adding it to a vest I am making I have had to start over and over because it comes out on the wrong side. What am I doing wrong? How can I add the basket stitch on a pattern already started? Thank you.
Love your tutorials, you make them so easy. Thank you for the Diagonal, just started a wide scarf, however, now I’ve found this stitch….l think I changed my mind. 😖 xx
When knitting a larger piece. Will you just continue the pattern of knit one, slip one, knit one, slip one and so on. Or will you have to do 4 rows knit all and then start again?
What happens after the row of one knit slip one, one knit slip one.. Do you just continue like that? Or do you knit all and then start the process again
It might get confusing because there's no row 0? The last stitch thru the back loop is how you do it is confusing also. Thanks for sharing it's a beautiful stitch. I'm a crochet trying to learn how to knit.
The setup row or row cero is not so frequent. Working the last stitch through the back loop is optional, it works better for me 😉 Enjoy your knitting journey!
I love this one! Thank you for sharing! I am just wondering what yarn size and needle size did you use one the white final product? My yarn size 5 and needle size 5 didn’t turn out with the same look as your white one.
Hi! Im trying to make a blanket using this pattern. I have medium 4 wool & the label says that US 7 needles would produce 4x4 swatch with 16 stitches. But im not sure how many stitches to cast on to make a blanket for a new born baby. Do you have any suggestions?
You try doing a knit only border. Knit 5 or 6 rows then start pattern. Place at least 3 stitches on the beginning and end of each row. Or try going up a needle size
Unless I'm doing something wrong, this is not a stretchy fabric so I don't see using it to knit a sweater. However, it will make fantastic dish/wash cloths!
Thank you for mentioning your experience with this stitch, as I am on the hunt for different and good texture stitches to use for my washcloths. ♡ I've tried using 10 row panels of seed stitch, 1x1 rib stitch and stockinette - with a 5 row and 5 stitch garter stitch border.

I think the extra loop for the purl stitch is what made two more loops. I haven’t tried this yet but I assumed it would be the reason why.
4th row) K1, yarn forward, slip 1 pearl wise, yarn back, knit 1
The yarn forward is to match the yarn (loop) of the 3rd row....
Loved this pattern. I am making it in a cap I am knitting for my husband. Thanks.
You’re welcome! Enjoy your knitting 🤗

This is such an easy stitch. Thank you for sharing :)
Can you also share how to make decreases and increases in this stitch?
Thank you!
This is a good easy to follow tutorial
I love how you make it so easy 😊 this one is my very first and it looks decent. Thank you!
Congratulations and thank you for sharing 🤗!
Rows 3 and 4, is it knit in the purls and slip in the slips?
👏🏻👏🏻🤩💯🏆🎉🥳💐
Thank you so much for demonstrating the continental style!! 💕🤗
This was so well explained 👏 🙌 bless you.
This is so satisfying to watch
I am going to try it! It looks like fun. 😊

Hansen Hosni the wrong side does look differently from the right side I’ve just knitted a beautiful pale lemon scarf using this pattern it’s gorgeous hope this helps x
@@lornairvine7037 pale lemon yarn sounds like my dream yarn. What yarn did you use, if you don't mind sharing. Thank you.
Can you explain why we need the purl set up row ? Would it work to just begin with the knit row ?
Thank u for teaching me,pls write for me the instruction I want to make my own
Thanks you so much for sharing
I really like the pattern
Thank you 😊
Just bought yarn for Christmas gift. I’ll make it like this

Often the last stitch from the cast on row is big. Kabob tightens it up
Hi
@@lynnecampbell5608 What is Kabob please?
I'm definitely going to try this pattern, thank you. Btw I love the way you knit, oh my I could watch you for hours.😃
Shaker sti’ch is nice I am am going to try.Tm

Hi, what kind of yarn and needle size are you using?
@@sowoolly 100% acrylic and 5mm needle. I was trying out the pattern in a bigger swatch.
She didn't stress how you need to keep the tension correct.
This might be your problem.
Every time you slip a stitch, you need to ensure that the yarn is not pulled tight across the gap. Always keep the stitches on your right needle spread normally so that the yarn at the back is not tight.
Thank you, Ruby Gray. I"ll try it again soon.
Thanks for another lovely easy pattern x
very easy to follow and really helpful!
Hi I like this pattern & you showed well but as beginner like to know how much stitches to cast for 36 bust line pl do reply Thanks
The first try on my sample swatch it didnt look rite but I tried again and I think I've got it thanks!!
So well explained, patiently.
Thank you.
Thank you for tne stitch patern.
What size needle do I use for this project? Can this pattern be used for a scarf, if so how many stitches should I cast on?
I am a crocheter and new to knitting. Thank you for showing continental style. I'm confused though by this pattern. If I repeat from row 1 every time I do not get the small squares. I wonder what I'm doing wrong?
It’s a four-row repeat pattern. Please take a look at the written instructions: sowoolly.net/how-to-knit-the-basket-stitch-chunky-and-cozy/
I just wanted to ask why there is a row 0 when you said to follow the 4 row pattern (rows 1-4)? Thank you
because the main part of the pattern is a 4 row repeat, the only part of the pattern that should be repeated is the rows 1-4 ❤️
Hi 👋🏼 I am a beginner with the basket stitch. I have finally gotten the stitch however, when adding it to a vest I am making I have had to start over and over because it comes out on the wrong side. What am I doing wrong? How can I add the basket stitch on a pattern already started? Thank you.
Do you have a ladies Cardigan pattern using this stitch please
No, I have a basic cardigan pattern where you can use this or any other stitch: th-cam.com/video/Mmf_iyAGRis/w-d-xo.htmlsi=boZU-ge0bWyo762B
Love your tutorials, you make them so easy. Thank you for the Diagonal, just started a wide scarf, however, now I’ve found this stitch….l think I changed my mind. 😖 xx
Thank you and good luck 🍀
When knitting a larger piece.
Will you just continue the pattern of knit one, slip one, knit one, slip one and so on.
Or will you have to do 4 rows knit all and then start again?
I want to knit a baby blanket how much wool do I need and how many stitches d I cast on? What no. Needles do I need.Thank you sister
Can I have a pattern book so I can follow
I’m working on it 😉
Beautiful pattern
Awesome 👌👌👌👌👌👌👌👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼
Thanks dear
I love her explanation but mine weren't coming out right. Is it possible I need to relax my tension? (Fairly new knitter)
Can this pattern be adjusted to use 2 colors?
Do you make a slip knot before adding the loops?
Not if I’m doing the long tail cast on method
Hi, could you please show this stitch using two colour yarns?? I'm trying it with two colours however, I'm unable to get the same pattern.. plz help
What happens after the row of one knit slip one, one knit slip one..
Do you just continue like that?
Or do you knit all and then start the process again
Very nice👍👍👍
Thank you for teaching us.
Is this basket stitch different to basket weave stitch?
Hi Mam....Can you refer the video for bind off purl wise... currently I'm knitting cap using this pattern... kindly help...thank you
This was so helpful and easy to understand. I’m excited to try this pattern. Thank you!
Good thanks
It might get confusing because there's no row 0? The last stitch thru the back loop is how you do it is confusing also. Thanks for sharing it's a beautiful stitch. I'm a crochet trying to learn how to knit.

How mny cast on for baby blanket should I take?
The pattern demo is not the same as what it’s meant to be.....
Would this pattern knit up for a baby blanket thank you 😊
It’s perfect! But you need to include a nice edge on each side of the piece 😉
Thanks the the video! What kind of yarn are you using and what needle size?
Wow so beautiful design I'm new sbscraebr 💕🤩🌹🌹🌹
Lovely hands!!
Thank you 😊
I love this one! Thank you for sharing! I am just wondering what yarn size and needle size did you use one the white final product?
My yarn size 5 and needle size 5 didn’t turn out with the same look as your white one.
What size needles are you using for this pattern please
Beautiful explained I'm a beginner
what size needles do i use to knit a baby's blanket
It depends on the fiber you’ll be using. Knit a swatch first to decide 😉
Giving this a try tonight and ❤️ love it. So grateful for your video and channel. New Woolly here! 👋🏻🧶
Hi! Im trying to make a blanket using this pattern. I have medium 4 wool & the label says that US 7 needles would produce 4x4 swatch with 16 stitches. But im not sure how many stitches to cast on to make a blanket for a new born baby. Do you have any suggestions?
Hi! Pleas check out my tutorial: The essential guide to stitches... 😉
How many rows of knit one slip one? Before knitting while row?
Excellent
I want pattern tutorial... How can I send you the picture?
Please reply..
Thanks mam🙏
My pleasure 🤗
What size needles
I really like this pattern but is it supposed to roll inwards from the long ends or is it my stitch tension?
You try doing a knit only border. Knit 5 or 6 rows then start pattern. Place at least 3 stitches on the beginning and end of each row. Or try going up a needle size
Great pattern. Definitely in my inventory. Thank you.
Will this curl??
Yes, this curls. You’ll need to block your piece when it’s done, or else use border stitches.
Thank you for this and all your tutorials!
Is row 3 and 4 the same
how does this go with a dk yarn?
Perfectly fine (I think that I used DK cotton yarn for the image), but, use a needle size smaller than the suggested by the manufacturer 😉
@@sowoolly thanks! :)
Unless I'm doing something wrong, this is not a stretchy fabric so I don't see using it to knit a sweater. However, it will make fantastic dish/wash cloths!
I wouldn't think it would be a stretchy fabric, but it is dense and would make a great hat, scarf or cowl.
Thank you for mentioning your experience with this stitch, as I am on the hunt for different and good texture stitches to use for my washcloths. ♡ I've tried using 10 row panels of seed stitch, 1x1 rib stitch and stockinette - with a 5 row and 5 stitch garter stitch border.
How many cast on stitches for a baby blanket?
That depends. Please take a look at this tutorial: th-cam.com/video/rv21nHjdq-E/w-d-xo.html
Please guide from where to find this pattern
