- 11 stitches x 14 rows = 10 x 10 cm
- Basic pattern (stockinette stitch)
- 4threads of yarn; choose the right needle size
- With needle 8 mm for ws-rows and 9 mm for rs-rows (k on rs, p on ws)
- With needle 9 mm for rounds (k all stitches)
- hem cuffs with needle 7 mm: 11 stitches x 23 rows = 10 x 10 cm
- sleeve-cuffs with needle 6 mm: 15 stitches x 25 rounds = 10 x 10 cm
NOTE: Steps 1 – 4 are worked in rows, from step 5 on in rounds. As the knit stitches are often worked slightly tighter as the purl stitches, a smaller needle size than the main needle size is used for the ws-rows in order to achieve an even stitch pattern in rows and rounds.
