Video tutorial of the Grid Stitch.
This is an excellent stitch for beginner knitters! It provides a fabric that lays flat and is completely reversible. Great stitch for a scarf or blanket. The video and the first pattern below shows how to knit the stitch in the flat. I have also provided directions for knitting this stitch in the round.
Stitch pattern (stitch is worked on an odd number of sts); pattern is a 4-row repeat; level: beginner).
Abbreviations: K=knit; P=purl; st=stitch.
Cast on an odd number of sts using any cast-on method of your choice (I typically use the long-tail cast-on method; video link to that technique is below). You can use regular needles; you don’t need double-pointed needles; I like using them for my demos (:
Row 1 (right side): K1, *K1, P1. Repeat from * to the last 2 sts, then K2.
Row 2: K1, *P1, K1. Repeat from * to the end of the row.
Row 3: K all sts
Row 4: K all sts
Repeat Rows 1-4 for the pattern. When done knitting, cast off using regular bind off or any bind-off method of your choice.
To knit this stitch in the round (eg, for a hat): Cast on an even number of sts
Row 1: *K1, P1. Repeat from * to the end of the row.
Row 2: same as Row 1
Row 3: K all sts
Row 4: P all sts.
Repeat Rows 1-4 for knitting this pattern in the round.
