Summertime is here and that calls for a stitch that won’t take too much time away from those busy summer schedules to master. It’s another one of those stitches that consists of only knits and purls—perfect for a quick knit with loads of texture and possible future uses. This one is truly lovely and reminiscent of the woven crusts on the top of a scrumptious cherry pie!
