How to Knit Two-Color Linen Stitch

In the video above, Kelley demonstrates how to knit the linen stitch in two colors or one. There are also two different options for the edges of the placemats, completely customizable to what you prefer! 

Recommended Yarn

Kelley knit her placemats using Remix by Berroco, a yarn made from recycled fibers. Kelley is still testing out Remix as a possible yarn we might carry. Instead of Remix, she recommends using Pima 100 by Berroco because it is a very durable yarn that is also extremely soft to the touch. Since it is made from 100% cotton, the placemats are easy to clean as well.
