I don’t know if there is a name, I found it in a vintage 50’s pattern and adjusted it to work better with colour changes. But look up “k3b” for the specific knit 3 stitches below, and I will have a pattern out with this stitch in late April 😊

It’s basically 1x1 rib but every 4th row (on WS) you knit every knit stitch 3 sts below

Close up of a knitted ribbed texture in three different colour ways: light sage with caramel, lilac with dark purple and light grey with burgundy.

Can’t stop with this texture! So fun!

Sara is standing in front of a dark teal wall wearing a bright green shirt and a beige, light green and rust coloured plaid knitted vest. They are looking down and holding the ribbing at the bottom of the vest. #knitsky #knitweardesigner

Tuskaft vest, originally published in PomPom 48 will be released as a single pattern later in February. The original pattern doesn’t have the slits like I’ve made for myself here, but the single pattern will. Stay tuned!

A Caucasian person sits on a chair in front of a green, scrap yarn wall hanging. They have one leg up and rests an elbow on the knee. They are wearing white and green gingham pants, an orange, purple, green and turquoise plaid, knitted vest and are looking into the camera with a smile.

A presentation might be in order. I’m Sara (she/they), a Swedish knitwear designer, prop maker and restaurant worker. In my yarn world you see lots of colours and one or two (three, four…) plaid patterns. I love combining techniques and to turn my scraps into art (as you can see behind me). #knitsky

Yesterday was my birthday. What I didn’t plan was to be knocked down with the flu. What I did plan was a sale on all my self published patterns. The sale of 33% off (my now age) runs on Ravelry to the end of the month!

A knitted plaid pillowcase in white, orange, brown, navy, light blue and light green is held up in front of a dark teal wall.

I know it’s just a pillowcase, but it’s also so much of what I love in knitting. Plaid, marling, intarsia and using the materials you got. Throw in some texture as the cherry on top and I’m all in.
Instructions on how to make this pillowcase is included in my pattern Mr Colour Bag.
