Mastering Stitch Multiples and Symmetry in Knitting
Understanding Stitch Multiples
The quantity of stitches (sts) is calculated as follows: multiples of 12 sts + 2 selvedge sts + 7 sts for symmetry. This formula ensures that your knitting project remains balanced and visually appealing.
Repeating the Pattern
To achieve the desired design, repeat the pattern from the 1st to the 8th rows.
Consistency in this repetition is key to maintaining the integrity of the stitch pattern throughout your project.Interpreting the Stitch Guide
It's important to note that the scheme shows the wrong side rows as they appear from the right side. This means that the knitting symbols in these rows may indicate purls where you would actually knit, and vice versa.
This understanding will help prevent confusion and errors as you progress through your knitting pattern.
