Phew! Finally. Today’s stitch is the last stitch of our August 31 days of knitting series! I’m so thrilled to be finished with this series, mostly because I can now move on to my next 31 days of knitting series, which will be starting October 1st! Why so soon? Well, I’ve decided to increase how often I do the series to 4 times per year. When looking at the best time to do the series (as they are extremely time consuming), I decided it would be best to avoid November and December, since I usually take a lot of time off during those months. So the series will be moving from March and August to January, April, July, & October for the year of 2016. And because I’m so excited to get working on another one, I decided to go ahead and do one for October 2015 as well. [Read more…]

1 more day. I’m relieved, but kind of sad. I actually enjoy working on stitches for you guys. Todays stitch is the Staggered Eyelets Stitch. It’s simple, but creates a fun fabric.

Wow! Only 3 more left after today’s stitch. This stitch is the small version of the Chevron Rib Stitch we did earlier in this series. (Lots of Chevron and Herringbone Stitches this time around!). I personally like this stitch more as I think it lays better – but to each their own!

This stitch is a bit of a spin off of the Eyelet Chevron Stitch we did earlier in this series but instead of knitting the stitches in between the lace, we did a moss stitch!

Can you believe it’s almost the end of August? Where did the time go? For day 25 of our series, we chose the Double Basketweave stitch. It creates a really interesting textured basketweave pattern and it’s super easy to knit as it only uses knit and purl stitches!

Today’s stitch has probably the most random name I’ve come across yet. It kind of makes sense… kind of? I get the Eyelet Lattice part, but insertion? Who knows!? I do think this stitch is really cute and would look great on the sides of a sweater or running up the back of one.
