STOCKINETTE ZIG ZAG Knitting pattern adapted to 52SP

A friend purchased my STOCKINETTE ZIG ZAG Dishcloth pattern with the intention of adding it to the 52 Square Pickup collection. I offered to adapt the pattern for her, and now you can see it below too 🙂

If you prefer it, you can also purchase the adapted pattern in a high quality PDF file HERE.

Remember that, in case you need more patterns to add to this project, I adapted all patterns from my “12 Blocks for Xmas” blanket to the same number of stitches and rows than the “52 Square Pickup” ones. You can find them HERE.

ABBREVIATIONS

  • CO: cast on
  • RS: right side
  • WS: wrong side
  • st: stitch
  • k: knit
  • p: purl

INSTRUCTIONS

– CO 43 sts with US 7 (4.5 mm) needles.

I always cast on and bind off stitches with larger needles than I use for the main work. This prevent my cast on and bind off rows from being too tight.

– With US 6 (4 mm) needles, knit 4 rows.

Slip first stitch on every row as if you were to knit it, but without knitting it (except on the first row). It will form a neat and sturdy border.

– Continue working as follows:

4 garter sts, STOCKINETTE ZIG ZAG Stitch pattern over 35 sts, 4 garter sts​ until you have a total length of 8’’ (20.5 cm).

Knit 6 times the STOCKINETTE ZIG ZAG Stitch pattern complete + rows 1) to 7) again.

– Knit 4 rows.

– Bind off with US 7 (4.5 mm) needle. Cut yarn and weave in ends.
