Description: HURDLE STITCH BLOG POST HERE: sheepandstitch.com/library/hurdle-stitch-for-beginner-knitters YARN USED: Paintbox Yarns Cotton DK in the color 433 Washed Teal: bit.ly/3hN6sJ7 Hurdle stitch is a textured pattern created from knits and purls. It consists of rib stitch that’s interrupted by two rows of garter stitch. This garter ridge resembles the hurdles that horses jump over, which is where the stitch gets its name. Because it uses only knits and purls, hurdle stitch is great for beginners looking to expand beyond garter and stockinette stitch. Hurdle stitch lays flat and is reversible and stretchy, making it a good choice for blankets, scarves, sweaters, socks and more!
