Stockinette StitchUpdated 6 months ago

Stockinette stitch is achieved by knitting one row and purling the next, resulting in a smooth side (knit) and a bumpy side (purl). It’s commonly used in garments for its flat, even appearance.

Drawbacks: Stockinette stitch curls at the edges, so adding a border or blocking is often necessary for a neat finish.

Tip: Adding a few garter stitch rows at the beginning and end of a stockinette project can help reduce curling.
