The Double Stockinette Stitch Pattern has a beautiful, smooth finish. The smooth stitch texture is on both sides, lies flat, thicker, and squishy!
The regular stockinette stitch always curls up, right? But the Double Stockinette technique allows your work to immediately lie flat. It’s also a little bit thicker so it’s nice and squishy.
Please continue reading to get all your materials, techniques, and written pattern instructions to knit this stitch both flat on straight needles and in the round on circular needles.
