Knitting Stitches: For Beginners



craft for paper

You will find it helpful to understand the uses of each knitting stitch if you're just starting to knit. These stitches are easy and quick to pick out, even if you do drop some. You can also pull the unwanted stitches from the needle. This allows beginners to pick up and continue their work easily.

Stockinette stitch

Stockinette stitches are a common stitch that is used to knit, and then purl, fabric. It is similar in appearance to garter, but the bumps are smaller and there's a V on the right. For beginners, you will want to practice this stitch with thicker yarns or bamboo needles to avoid slippage. You can use this stitch in knitting as well as purling. You can use it to create squares, chevron patterns, and modern random rows.

Stockinette stitch is a timeless knit stitch that can also be used in many other projects. It is one of the most versatile stitches and can be used for any yarn weight or texture.

Herringbone stitch

Begin with the herringbone pattern by drawing parallel lines among two stitches. You can use a fabric marker to draw the stitch outline. This step may be repeated several times until the final result is satisfactory. Once the stitches are completed, add beads to them. This stitch will make it easy to create a clean, neat pattern.

You can use any type of seed beads for the tubular herringbone. You can use any size of seed beads, but it is best to start with the larger ones. Use different colours of beads to see how they will line up. To make sure that you know when to step up, mark the colour of your first and last pairs.

Kitchener stitch

Kitchener is one of most widely used stitches for knitting. It works by creating a row of stitches between two parallel needles. Normally, this stitch is used to join two pieces of stockinette stitch, but it can also be used to join two pieces of garter stitch or ribbing.


This grafting technique joins two sets of live stitches without a visible seam. It can be used to repair or replace a sock, mitten, or toe. Knitters can use Kitchener stitch for seam repair, to remake necklines on top-down sweaters, and to create invisible seams.

Ladder stitch

For beginners, the ladder stitch can be one of the most simple stitches to learn. This is achieved by sewing two folds together using a needle. To make it, simply insert the needle from the right side into the folded fabric. Next, pull the needle towards the center. You can watch a video tutorial on this stitch at VeryPinkKnits.com.

You can use this technique to knit and purl. However, when working with stranded colors it's much more straightforward to knit the ladder. It doesn't really matter which method you choose; the important thing is that the set number of stitches be even. To differentiate between knit or purl ladders, a stitch marker will be needed along with a contrast colour. You will need both yarns to be at the front of your ladder. You can then drop the background yarn and knit the ladder stitches with the contrast.

Moss stitch

Moss stitch can be used for a variety of knitting stitches. It is simple and easy to use. This pattern works well for all projects, even simple lap afghans. You can alter the stitch to give your finished project that perfect look. It can also produce a fairly thick fabric. It can be used to make projects that are strong and durable.

You will need to work four rows in moss stitch. A full design requires that you use an even number and consistent number of stitches for each row. This stitch process will be repeated two to three times depending on whether the rows are even or small.
