I tried this stitch out on Serenity’s strap, not sure about it, only to discover that Linen Stitch is the ultimate form-meets-function pattern. It features a different look on each side, melded with easy knitting, strength, and stretch.
Row 1: K
Row 2: P
Row 3: sl1, *k1, sl1 purlwise WYIF* rep from * to * to last st, k1.
Row 4: sl1, *p1, sl1 purlwise WYIB* rep form * to * to last st, p1.
