![]() If finishing a project with this stitch you will also need to knit a final row before bind off. Row 1: Sl 1, *BO 1, EWYO rep from * to last stitch.

The Seagrass Stitch alternates the bind off-yarnover row with a knit row breaking up the pattern and creating it’s own unique texture. The Sisal Stitch uses this technique on every row creating the illusion of a woven fabric. They combine a bind off with an ewrap yarnover to give the fabric an open texture. After searching the internet, knitting books and speaking with a few yarn shop owners and knitting instructors I was excited to learn that I really had designed some new stitches!īoth the Sisal and Seagrass stitches are simple to loom knit.
