Finally I found it. My english great grandmother made these for my father and his sisters when the were kids, for their wedding equipment. The towels were just white. Thank you for showing us!
Hi Cheryl! You’re very welcome - I’m so happy that you enjoy it! Were you able to download? Here’s the link to the free pdf on Ravelry, if you like: www.ravelry.com/patterns/library/chunky-basketweave-dishcloth
@@handmadebystacyj Thanks for your response! I was able to download a nice pdf for the Seersucker dishcloth, so looking forward to that - there was a direct link to print the pdf (without downloading a pdf software). Hopefully I can find this on your other projects. Thanks again!
Fantastic explanation. Really very clear. 👌👌. Just for my clarification, can i use this same pattern i.e. k3 starting and ending pattern for a sweater?
Thank you - glad it was a clear explanation for you :). Yes, you can use the pattern for a sweater. However, the math might be a little funny. As long as you can continue working within the stitch pattern, you should be okay, but it may need some adjustments. If you do make a sweater with it, I'd LOVE to see it!!
Thanks so much! For a blanket, it really depends on the yarn that you want to use and the size of the needles. After picking those out, I'd do a gauge swatch to determine how many stitches to cast on (This pattern works in multiples of 10+6). Here's the website link for the dishcloth to give you a good idea: handmadebystacyj.com/2022/02/28/learn-to-knit-the-basketweave-dishcloth/
That’s a great tutorial, thank you so much. Very well explained. If I wanted to make this into a baby afghan, could I make the ribbing a bit wider on each side and more than 2 rows at beginning and end?
Hi Sue! Yes, if you wanted to extend the ribbing and add on a few more rows at the beginning and end you would end up with a lovely baby afghan. Usually, I try to get at least 3" worth of border all around for baby afghans. I'm actually planning on designing one utilizing this stitch, too! I'd love to see yours when it's done!
Thankyou for this tutorial. How would I go about changing colors, say if I wanted each stockinette stitch to be blue, and each reverse stockinette stitch to be green (of course, this would be opposite on the other side?). Would I need to employ a stranded knitting technique? Thankyou :)
Hi! I think you could try it a couple of ways, but I'm not sure how good it would turn out. You could try stranded knitting and pick up the floats; The Intarsia technique would probably work better. Or, there's the time intensive technique of Duplicate Stitch. I'd love to see what you come up with :)
Im learning to knit. Is there any way i could have the instructions so I could print them. Im pretty slow. By the time si cast on all the stitches, you were way ahead. Thank you very much, you have done a great job in showing us how but i am rather slow. I have only knitted a scarf. thank you again.
@@beatrice2837 - Welcome to the world of knitting! I have a printable pdf on my website at: www.handmadebystacyj.com/knit It also has a chart and a handy little checklist. Hope that helps!
Just wondering why we have to knit a whole row in between the pattern repeat. I watched another woman knit the same type of basketweave blanket but did not do that single row of knitting in between the repeat pattern, but I must admit, it doesn’t look as clean and nice as this one. Just wondering. Thank you!
Hi Sue! I did the knit row as part of the design to make the weave look more like a weave - for example, if you look at a basket, there is typically a little more space needed to create the "weave" - really as more of a preference, though. I also just like how the back looks with that stitch pattern. :) Glad you like how clean it looks! This was fun to create!
Thank You! Beautiful stitch and really clear explanation! I’ll make one!
Thank you so much! I'm glad that you like it and would love to see the one that you make. :)

Great tutorial…so what would multiple be for a blanket please❤❤❤

Pattern looks pretty, however how do you make this square and not round…at the beginning?
