Pattern Description
Ridged Knot Stitch features “X” or star-like shapes, framed and separated by horizontal ridge-like rows. The knots create a dimensional and decorative effect on the knitted fabric.
It’s ideal for projects that benefit from colorwork and texture, like blankets, cushion covers, bags, or even jackets.
