Second Square


For anybody still searching for knit stitch patterns, here is the second square I knitted. My book calls it "Little Checkers" but it is kind of a giant moss stitch.

Multiple of four stitches.
Row 1: *K2, P2* repeat **
Row 2&4: work each pattern stitch at appears on this side of the work (k the knit and p the purl)
Row 3: *P2, K2* repeat **

This is mindless knitting, pretty much. You are stacking (on the right side) two purl stitches and two knit stitches, then reversing the order on the next two rows. I consider it a double moss stitch.
Here is a REAL closeup. If you look carefully you can see where the knit and purls are.
