Historical version 1 of Linen Stitch (view current version)

A nice flat fabric that doesn't roll. The "wrong side" is also serviceably attractive, so this can be used for reversible fabrics.

  • Row 1: K1, (slip 1 purlwise with yarn in front, K1) to end.
  • Row 2: K1, P1, (slip 1 purlwise with yarn in back, P1) to last stitch, K1.

Odd-numbered rows are the right side.
