What is the Box Stitch in knitting?<\/strong>
Box Stitch is a simple knit and purl stitch pattern that produces a double sided, textured fabric. Because both sides look equally good, it is particularly well suited to scarves, throws, and other projects where both sides will be visible.<\/p>

What stitches do I need to know to knit Box Stitch?<\/strong>
Only basic knit and purl stitches are needed. If you can knit and purl, you can work Box Stitch.<\/p>

What is the stitch multiple for Box Stitch?<\/strong>
Cast on a multiple of 4 stitches plus 2. For example, 4 x 10 plus 2 gives you a starting cast on of 42 stitches.<\/p>

What yarn works well for Box Stitch?<\/strong>
Any ColourSpun yarn works well for this stitch. Pure Merino Aran<\/a> was used for this sample, giving a beautifully defined texture. Heavier weights tend to show the box pattern most clearly.<\/p>

Is Box Stitch reversible?<\/strong>
Yes. Box Stitch produces the same textured pattern on both sides of the fabric, making it ideal for items like scarves and throws where the reverse side will be seen.<\/p>

What can I make with Box Stitch?<\/strong>
Box Stitch works beautifully for scarves, throws, blankets, and cushion covers. Any project where a double sided, textured fabric is an advantage is a good candidate for this stitch.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
