About the Lattice Seed Stitch Pattern
Let’s take a close look at our Lattice Seed Stitch Pattern, seeing exactly how those knits and purls are knitted together to make this simple pattern.
Easy Knitting Techniques
This pattern is achieved with a simple combination of knits and purls.
Row Repeats
This 18-Row Repeat Knit Stitch Pattern looks like a complicated cabled design but is an easy beginner-level design.
Texture Construction
There are vertical stripes of Stockinette and horizontal stripes of Garter stitches that interweave to create this visually interesting design. The latticework is atop a background bed of the Seed Stitch.
Is the Lattice Seed Stitch Reversible?
No, this is not a reversible pattern because the right side of the work displays the design while the wrong (back) side does not.
Knitting Project Ideas
This makes for a great pattern choice for knitted projects like scarves or blankets because it is bordered on all sides.
