Every Saturday I will share with you a new stitch.
Today's stitch is: Mosaic Diamonds
Rows of large moss stitch diamonds and chains of small stockinette diamonds form this mosaic knitting stitch. Lovely on a sweater, scarf, throw, plillow etc. You need a stitch number multiple of 12 + 1 + 2 edge stitches. Repeat the pattern between the * as many times as you like.
