HURDLE STITCH for Beginners (Best Beginner Knit Stitches)

HURDLE STITCH BLOG POST HERE: sheepandstitch.com/library/hu...
YARN USED: Paintbox Yarns Cotton DK in the color 433 Washed Teal: bit.ly/3hN6sJ7
Hurdle stitch is a textured pattern created from knits and purls. It consists of rib stitch that’s interrupted by two rows of garter stitch.
This garter ridge resembles the hurdles that horses jump over, which is where the stitch gets its name.
Because it uses only knits and purls, hurdle stitch is great for beginners looking to expand beyond garter and stockinette stitch.
Hurdle stitch lays flat and is reversible and stretchy, making it a good choice for blankets, scarves, sweaters, socks and more!

Hello Davina! Love your tutorials, thanks so much for taking the time to make them. I was wondering, how do you thread the yarn through your hands in this video? Also, are you familiar with levering?

[@19001xi]

Cast on even stitches
Row 1 & 2 knit all
Row 3 & 4: rib all
Repeat

[@sophiasays8089]

[@KarenClemmons]

What kind of knitting needles are you using in this video? I've looked everywhere for them! I love your videos... I'm a new knitter and I've gained so much confidence from watching your amazing tutorials, so thank you very much! 😊

[@yelenareyes1929]

What yarn size and needle size are you using. I am a beginner and so far I’ve learned the knit and purl stitch using bulky yarn and 10mm needles. Thanks for your videos :) they are so helpful to me

[@sheepandstitch]

These are 4mm needles and the yarn is paintbox yarns cotton DK

[@courtneyangelilli8767]

Does the cast on amount change for blankets Davina??

[@sheepandstitch]

The number of cast on stitches depends on the yarn you’re using and how wide you want the blanket to be. Just cast on an even number of stitches and the pattern will work!

[@courtneyangelilli8767]

I'm using US 6 straight bamboo needles

[@paradisegarden1316]

How to end hurdle stitch?

[@sheepandstitch]

You can do a basic cast off/bind off or cast off in pattern. I’ve got a video for that here: ruclips.net/video/STj68QWX0do/видео.htmlsi=COQoXuG0MikdorS7
