What You’ll Need

Yarn & tools:

  • This stitch works with a variety of yarns, but shows best in soft, elastic fibers with smooth structure. The swatches shown here are made with DROPS Karisma — a worsted (DK) weight yarn.
  • We recommend using a hook 1–2 sizes larger than the label suggests for a more relaxed, wearable fabric.

Skill Level: Intermediate
