How to knit smock pattern over 1 knit, 2 purls, 1 knit

In this DROPS video we show you how to create a smock pattern by winding the yarn 2 times around 4 stitches (1 knit, 2 purls, 1 knit). We work 2 edge stitches in each side and we have already knitted a few cm of pattern (1 knit, 2 purls, 1 knit). We start the video on the row where we are going to wind the yarn around the 4 stitches to create a smock pattern. Put the 4 stitches (1 knit, 2 purls, 1 knit) on a cable needle back of the work, wind the working yarn twice around this 4 stitches, then knit this stitches (1 knit, 2 purls, 1 knit). Choose by yourself how many rows there should be between each winding, and to create a texture; wind the yarn around the 4 next stitches before and 4 stitches after the last winding. We use the yarn DROPS Snow in the video.

Then we show the two first and the last report of the 7th round, then 2 reports of the 8th round, 1 report of 9th -10th and at the end how the hat will look after 1 report of A.1 in height.

Smock pattern: wind the yarn twice around sts

Here is a technique where we wind the working yarn around 6 stitches to create a nice texture while just working in rib (K2, P2). We cast on 22 sts, wind 6 sts tog on every 6th row. To create the texture we alternate the 6 sts wound tog for each repeat. The video starts on row 16 from WS before the first wind (P2, K2 across ending with P2). Row 17 (RS): * place 6 sts on a cable needle, wind the yarn twice around these 6 sts - tighten, work the 6 sts from cable needle as before (rib), P2 *. Repeat *-* 2 more times, but end last repeat with last K2 from cable needle. Continue in rib. Row 23 (´RS): K2, P2, * place 6 sts on a cable needle, wind the yarn twice around these 6 sts - tighten, work the 6 sts from cable needle as before (rib), P2*. Repeat *-* and end with K2. Repeat the rows with winding on every 6th row until desired measure.

Honey comb pattern

This Honey comb pattern is worked with the help of a a cable needle following a chart (1 edge st each side K on every row): We already have worked 1 repetition of the chart plus the first 2 rows of next repetition. Now we are starting from 3rd row down in right corner on the chart like this: 3rd row (RS): K1 edge st, slip 2 sts on cable needle behind piece, K2, K2 from cable needle. Then slip 2 sts on cable needle in front of piece, K2, K2 from cable needle, K1 edge st. 4th row (WS): K1 edge st, P across, K1 edge st 5th row (RS): K1 edge st, K across, K1 edge st 6th row (WS): as 4th row. 7th row (RS): K1 edge st, slip 2 sts on cable needle in front of piece, K2, K2 from cable needle. Then slip 2 sts on cable needle behind piece, K2, K2 from cable needle, K1 edge st 8th row (WS): as 4th row. Now 2 full vertical repeats are worked of this pretty honey comb pattern.

Repeat row 1-2 for rib pattern. 1st smock row, work next row from RS: K1, *P2, stick in the needle after next 4 sts, after 2nd K st, pick up the yarn, place loop on left needle, K loop and first st tog, P2, K1*, repeat *-* when 3 sts remain P2, K1. Work 5 rows in rib as before. 2nd smock row, work next row from RS: * stick in the needle after next 4 sts, after 2nd K st, pick up the yarn, place loop on left needle, K loop and first st tog, P2, K1, P2*, repeat *-* when 4 sts remain: pick up the yarn after the last 4 sts, place loop on left needle, K loop and first st tog, P2, K1.
