Square #4 in the charity project, the second square from this skein of multi-colored TLC. I may be able to get one more square out of it; we’ll see. This is a very simple two-line pattern that’s scarcely more complicated than straight knitting and purling. And yet the slanted stitches just look so cool… it almost feels like cheating. The resulting fabric is quite dense: I bumped up from size 7 to size 11 needles for this worsted weight yarn and it’s still a bit thick. This stitch would be great to use for a bag handle or a nice warm scarf.
