Every Saturday I will share with you a new stitch.
Today's stitch is: Narrow Vandyke Edging.
Add a little flair or a decorative element to your knitting, maybe to stabilize the edge to prevent rolling or simply make your work look more finished. Great to use on a scarf, sweater instead of a rib, blankets and throws.
