INDIAN PILLAR STITCH for Beginners (Best Beginner Knit Stitches)

The Indian Pillar Stitch is a gorgeous two-row pattern that features a column of bobbles and a pretty faux-lace pattern.

Use a larger pair of needles for this stitch. Go up 1-2 needle sizes for a lacy look.

The Indian Pillar Stitch lays flat and looks pretty on both sides. It would look beautiful knit into a scarf or as a decorative panel in sweaters, mittens or socks.

This stitch looks fantastic! It almost feels like cheating when stitch patterns look incredibly complex but are actually quite simple to execute 😅 Thanks so much for sharing! You've inspired me to incorporate this stitch into a future project 😊

I love the look of this stitch and have tried several times to knit something using it but the space on the needle becomes so tight that it's a real struggle to complete the stitch each time. I've tried different sized needles but short of literally lifting each loop and placing it on the needle I just have a hard time even starting the stitch. I've gotten it to work by casting on and knitting very, very loosely but then the piece loses its shape and I don't end up with anything looking like the result here. This issue doesn't in the video - what's the secret to maneuvering the needle in such a tight space?

This one I find quiet difficult 🖤 you are amayzing

Amazing 👏 So well explained that I was just doing it in moments

I aways try to use circular needles because I would keep losing one needle when I set the work down. Then I would have to look down in the couch cusions to find it, (if I could find it). With a circular needle it was always attached on the other end. Also they would be the same size. If you mix straight needles for different companies they may be slightly different .

[MagdalenaTheremin]

Something I like in it though (next to how does it look 🖤) - its regular. I have the most difficulties if I have to 2 raws than 2 others and than repeat 🤣 its need max concentration🤣
