Once you have finished, you can tie a knot to secure the tail ends on the back, and weave in the yarn tails. Repeat these steps for all stitches following your chart.
Then, bring the needle to the back through the starting point of this heart shaped duplicate stitch. Insert your sewing needle from right to left through the second stitch up.
To make the next heart shape, bring the needle out front at the bottom point of the next 'V', following your chart or pattern instructions. Step 6:Ĭomplete your first duplicate stitch by inserting the needle back through the same gap where you started this stitch, from the front to the back of your work. Step 5:īring the needle under the entire 'V' shaped stitch and pull the yarn through. Insert your sewing needle from right to left through the second stitch up on the front of your work. Step 3:īring the sewing needle from the back of your work out front at the bottom of the 'V', leaving a yarn tail on the back. The intarsia and Swiss darning patterns are in chart form only. This yarn is single ply and a dream to work with. Merion by Debbie Bliss is a thick and easy yarn. The diagonal lines utilize the Swiss darning technique to complete the scarf. Step 2:Ĭount to the starting point of your first stitch, following your chart. The scarf is knit flat from the bottom up with the argyle motif using the intarsia technique. Start by threading your sewing needle with the contrast yarn. In this tutorial, we'll duplicate a row of stitches to create contrast 'hearts'. You'll also use the chart to determine the gaps between stitches, and which colors to use when Swiss darning. Following the chart, you'll count to your starting point on your knitting. Your pattern may include a chart that will indicate which stitches you will duplicate.
This allows you to add delicate patterns on your knitted projects without using the trickier technique of stranded color work known as Fair Isle. It's often used to work single motifs, or to decorate a small area of knitting in a contrast color. These patterns use DK yarn and the intarsia and (optional) Swiss darning techniques, so may not be suitable for beginners. Swiss darning is a way of embroidering your knitting, by duplicating a stitch.
