 GARTER STITCH doesn’t get old. I confess there was a time when I stuck my
nose up at it because I had moved onto more advanced, “better” knitting techniques.
It took me awhile to come back to it, but ultimately I did because of the comfort,
peace, and mindfulness it fosters. It’s a consistent way to get back into the process of
knitting for the knitting itself, and it’s a reminder of why I started this craft to begin
with. The repetitive motion of working only knit stitches is meditative and calming.
But you, reader, already know that.
Connect with the knitscene Garter stitch has been making a comeback in this community over the past few years
team and our other knitting as well, with projects that focus on simplicity and construction. At the same time, more-
titles at www.interweave.com. complex methods that provide engagement and a bit of challenge are always in popular
demand. How do you marry the most basic knitting technique with something exciting
and new that will keep you engaged? This question inspired us to incorporate the second element of the projects in
this issue: edgings. We wanted to see how designers would utilize these approaches separately and in what clever
ways they’d combine them. The result is a gorgeous collection of spring projects in light pinks and rich teals that will
bring you back to the basics of this craft and give you a challenge when you need one. There is something here for
every kind of knitter.
One of the delicious projects in this issue, the Sidelong Tee (page 35), is knitted from side to side and inspired this
issue’s technique article (page 40), written by Karen Frisa. There is so much to know about knitting a garment side
to side rather than bottom up or top down, we couldn’t fit all that useful information into one article. Since there is so
much to know about knitting garments sideways, we’ll include a follow-up article in our next issue, so stay tuned!
On behalf of the knitscene team, we are so happy to have you here with us as we kick off 2020. We had a challeng-
ing 2019, but we’re excited to keep this train moving and for you to join us on the ride. So, thank you!

Sincerely,

cooperative is owned by over 200 native Alaskan women,
and they have been working since 1969 to bring qiviut
yarn to the rest of the world. Qiviut is the underwool of
the Artic musk ox, and it might be the softest yarn you’ve
ever worked with. Warmer than wool, yet extremely
lightweight, this yarn is perfect for luxurious, wintery
accessories. www.qiviut.com SUGAR BUSH YARNS SHIVER
Sugar Bush Yarns takes inspiration for its products
from the cold northern climate of Canada, where Sugar
Bush is located—and Shiver is no exception. A glorious
blend of 65% superwash Merino, 25% kid mohair, and 10%
silk, Shiver is ideal for cozy hats, sumptuous scarves, and
relaxed sweaters. This delightfully squishy single-ply,
worsted-weight yarn comes in 21 rich shades, ideal for
colorwork knitting. It’s also wonderfully soft, making it a

Needles for Quick Knitting

SIGNATURE NEEDLE ARTS DOUBLE-POINTED NEEDLES
If you’ve knit long enough, you’ve probably experienced the tragedy of having a
stitch slip right off your needle while you weren’t looking. Signature Needle Arts
double-pointed needles feature a Slip/Grip needle stalk, keeping your stitches safely
away from the perilous needle points until you need them. Needle-size information is
easily visible along every needle in the set, so you’ll never need a sizer to know you’ve
grabbed the correct ones. In addition, Signature Needle Arts offers monogramming for
their needles—if you’re looking for the perfect gift for an avid knitter in your life,
a set of these would be ideal! www.signatureneedlearts.com

CHIAOGOO TWIST SHORTIES

INTERCHANGEABLE SYSTEM
ChiaoGoo Twist Shorties are perfect for small, light
yarn projects. Each interchangeable set comes with
both 2- and 3-inch tips that fit onto the three included
cables, measuring 5, 6, and 8 inches. If you need a
different cable length, never fear! The needle tips can
be used with other mini cables from the ChiaoGoo
line. Each set is packaged in a red or blue fabric pouch
that contains the cables and a secure snap-closure
sleeve that has labeled pockets for each needle tip.
The set also comes with end stoppers, tightening keys,
connectors, stitch markers, and a mini needle gauge.
If all you need is a shorter cable, check out ChiaoGoo’s
combo packs, which include two sets of tips, two
cables, and tightening keys. www.chiaogoo.com

SKACEL ADDI ROCKET 2 CIRCULAR NEEDLES

The square shape and slightly rounded edges of the Rocket2
circular needles are ideal for anyone who has a hard time holding
round, traditionally shaped needles. The shape and texture are
designed to promote good ergonomics while in use, reducing
tension as you knit. The evenly spaced texture of the shaft keeps
stitches safely on the needle, and the long, tapered point gives you
plenty of space for complex stitch combinations. Rocket2 also has a
seamless transition from the pliable nylon cable to the needle tips.

Sweater from
Side to Side
Part 1 By Karen Frisa

Sidelong Tee, page 35

You’ve probably made sweaters from the bottom up,
and possibly from the top down, but have you ever
tried knitting a sweater from side to side? This type of vertical stripes without having to use intarsia or stranded
construction can also be referred to as knitting from knitting. But these sweaters present some different types

you understand the unique characteristics of knitting a

DIFFERENT CONSTRUCTION METHODS

There are a few ways to construct a side-to-side sweater,
in addition to the methods described above. If sleeves back front
aren’t going to be worked along with the body, you
could cast on the side-seam stitches, work increases for
armhole shaping, then cast on several stitches at once to sleeve
finish the armhole, work increases for shoulder shaping,
work neck-shaping decreases, then increases, then work
shoulder and armhole shaping to mirror the first side
(Figure 3). Work a separate front or back (with different
neck shaping) and sew the two pieces together at the
sides and shoulders. To add sleeves later, you could
pick up stitches around the armhole edge and work
the sleeves from the top down or work the sleeves from

FIGURE 6
the bottom up and sew them to the body. For cardigan
fronts worked side to side (Figure 4), you could sleeve
begin at the side seam and work the armhole
shaping, then shape the shoulder and the
left
neck, then bind off at the center front. For the front
other front, cast on at the center front and
work the shaping in reverse.
back right
front
Working from the Edges to the Center
Another way to knit from side to side is to
sleeve
make two halves that mirror each other,
with each half starting at a sleeve cuff and ending at
the center of the body, where the two halves would be
grafted (or sewn) together (Figure 5). A cardigan made in
this way would need to be joined only at the center back,
leaving the fronts open (Figure 6).
FIGURE 7
Working from the Center Out
You could also start with a provisional cast-on at the
center back and work out to the side seam and then
front
bind off (Figure 7). With this construction, stitches are &
picked up from the cast-on and the other half is worked back
in the opposite direction from the first half. The front of
a pullover could be worked in the same way. The fronts
of a cardigan would be cast on with a closed (non-
provisional) cast-on.

NOTES
• This hat is worked back and forth. The center panel is worked first,
almost to the top of the hat, then stitches are picked up along each
side of the center panel and rows are worked from the bottom of
the hat up and over the crown to the bottom on the other side.
After the required depth is reached, the side stitches are joined to
the center panel with a perpendicular join.
• Use a removable marker or safety pin to mark the right side of
the work.

• A circular needle is used to accommodate the large number

of stitches.
• When you work Dec Chart 1 the first time, there will be enough
stitches to work the pattern repeat 19 times. When you first repeat
Rows 3–22 of the chart, there will only be enough stitches to work
the pattern repeat 18 times. As the decreases continue, work one

Courtney Spainhower began in fine arts as a ceramicist.
However, as a stay-at-home mother, she discovered knitting—
the perfect blend of child friendly and portable while fulfilling
her need to keep her fidgeting hands busy while creating
utilitarian pieces. Courtney has been designing since 2009
and has contributed work to many books and magazines. She
is the author of the knitting books Family-Friendly Knits
