Knit Stitch

 

This is fun because it looks like knitting and it’s a super easy stitch to create. There’s definitely a million ways to do this stitch so feel free to do what feels right. If you are using it as a filler you can just stitch rows and rows of W’s versus columns of V’s. 

This stitch is easy to do on an AIDA fabric (seen in the photo tutorial) but I think it looks better on a less structured fabric because it looks a lot more like actual knitting.

This is on linen which offers an even-weave but is less stiff than AIDA - I think it looks more like an actual knit on the softer fabric.
