HOW TO KNIT:

Knitted I-Cord Cast On

This is a decorative cast on which creates a lovely piped trim effect along the edge of your knitting. Use the Knitted I-Cord Cast On to cast on for any project to add a bit of extra polish.

Written Steps — for Circular Knitting

Pattern: Byssa

Steps:

  • Cast on 3 stitches using a Long-Tail Cast On.
  • *Slip 3 stitches to the left needle with working yarn in back, knit the first stitch front and back (keeping the first stitch firm but not tight for each row), knit 2.
  • Repeat from * until there are 2 more stitches than the required number of cast on stitches.
  • Join to work in the round, being careful not to twist your ring of stitches.
  • Slip 3 stitches to the left needle, knit 1.
  • Thread the tail from the beginning of the cast-on onto a tapestry needle and join the Knitted I-Cord ends together by grafting the next 2 stitches on the L needle to the cast-on row of the Knitted I-Cord.

Written Steps — for Flat Knitting

Steps:

  • Cast on 3 stitches using a Long-Tail Cast On.
  • *Slip 3 stitches to the left needle with working yarn in back, knit the first stitch front and back (keeping the first stitch firm but not tight for each row), knit 2.
  • Repeat from * until there are the required number of cast on stitches.

Byssa

Ribbed Tank

Treasure awaits in the tidepools. Like the shimmering ridges of a shell, intersecting angles of ribbing flow over the surface of Byssa. A curvaceous hi-lo hem in cropped or classic length rises in a graceful sweep to the gently scooped armholes and neckline. Craft a light-as-seafoam version in woolen-spun Loft, or capture the alluring flow of a wave with the refined drape of Peerie — an ideal layer for breezy beachfront strolls.
