Double Woven Stitch Cloth one of my favourites...
can't you tell!!
Cast on 38 stitches using 4mm needles
Rows 1-4: Knit across
Row 5: k3, p32, k3
Row 6: k6, *sl 2 wyif, k2; rep from * to last 4 sts; k4
Row 7: k3, p32, k3
Row 8: k4, *sl 2 wyif, k2; rep from * to last 6 sts; sl 2 wyif, k4
Row 9: k3, p32, k3
Row 10-57: repeat rows 6-9 twelve (12) more times
Row 58-60: knit across
Bind off, and admire your beautiful creation! :o)
Note: "sl 2 wyif" is worked like this: bring your yarn to the front,
as if you were going to purl. Now slip the next 2 sts. from thee left
needle to the right needle without working them, and bring your yarn
to the back for the proper position for knitting the next 2 sts.
This is what forms the horizontal bars all over the cloth, and what
breaks up the colour blocks (known as pooling) you often get when
knitting with variegated yarn.
