Knit One BelowOne Stitch, Many FabricsElise Duvekot

Contributor BioElise Duvekot is a translator and a knitwear designer. She lives in Toronto, Ontario, and theNetherlands.

SummaryThe bright idea behind this guide is to build an entire collection around one simple stitch that createsmany intriguing effects. Shown in knitting instructions as "k1b" (knit 1 below), the technique involvesknitting into the stitch one row below the stitch on the needle with either a knit or a purl stitch. Theresult is an easy-to-knit fabric with wonderful drape and flexibility that looks equally good on bothsides. The color effects possible are also impressive: by alternating two or more colors, weights, orfibers, flattering vertical columns appear on one side of the fabric and a mottled pattern shows onthe other. Making the most of this double-sided characteristic, the projects include afghans, scarves,bags, jackets with turned-back lapels, and hats with turned-up brims, all constructed from simpleshapes and requiring minimal finishing. Several designs go beyond the basic stitch by adding cables,felting, and intarsia designs.
