Learn to Knit 6: Pique Rib Stitch
This pattern is part of a guided “Learn to Knit” series designed by an elementary teacher. Each successive facecloth pattern in the series builds on previous skills in the tiniest increments, making the daunting challenge of learning how to knit accessible. While it is best to pair this guide with the hands-on advice of a knitting shop or friendly neighbourhood knitter, each skill has multiple links to YouTube videos so that you can learn on your own or review lessons when your guide isn’t available.
If you’ve ever tried to teach someone to knit and been at a loss for where to start or where to go next, this series removes that mental puzzle and allows you to focus on what you do best: knit. You can share this guide with your learner so they can access the tutorial links to practice when you aren’t available.
The pique rib stitch is a variation on the rib stitch, where each vertical rib is interrupted by a purl ridge at regular intervals. In making this cloth, you will be expanding on the skills you learned in previous patterns because you will need to switch between knitting and purling within a row, while also counting rows.
Pre-requisite Skills:
- cast on (CO) and bind off (BO),
- knit (k) and purl (p)
Expanding Skills:
- switching between knitting and purling within a row,
- counting rows
