2. Twined knitting - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Twined_knitting

   A deep stitch is created by letting the front strand of yarn run in front while knitting one stitch with the back strand of yarn. If consecutive deep stitches are to be created, the strands of yarn must swap places before knitting the next stitch. [17] A crook stitch involves an odd number of stitches (1 purl, 1 knit, 1 purl). It is created by ...

3. Yarn over - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Yarn_over

   Yarn-overs are also used to slip stitches neatly without having to pass the yarn in front or back. Instead, a yarn-over is done adjacent to the slipped stitch, and the two are knit together on the following row. Thus, the yarn is "tucked away" by passing over the slipped stitch, rather than in front or back. This is the basis for brioche ...

4. Increase (knitting) - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Increase_(knitting)

   Yarn-over increase or "eyelet increase" – The simplest increase is to do a yarn-over between two existing stitches. On subsequent rows, the yarn-over will be knitted, making a new stitch. This disadvantage of this method is that a small hole (eyelet) is produced at the yarn-over. This can be improved by twisting the yarn-over stitch - similar ...

6. Casting on (knitting) - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Casting_on_(knitting)

   Involves knitting onto a cast on row knitted in a contrasting yarn with half as many stitches. Each knit stitch into the contrasting stitches is followed by a yarn-over to double the number of stitches. After several rows, a tuck is formed by knitting together the first and third rows, forming a tube through which elastic can be pulled.

7. Brioche knitting - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Brioche_knitting

   Brioche knitting is a family of knitting patterns involving tucked stitches, i.e., yarn overs that are knitted together with a slipped stitch from the previous row. Such stitches may also be made by knitting into the row below (equivalent to the slipped stitch) and dropping the stitch above (equivalent to the yarn over).

8. Lace knitting - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lace_knitting

   If the decrease follows the yarn over, it typically slants left as seen from the right side (e.g., k2tog tbl or ssk, not k2tog). These slants pull the fabric away from the yarn over, opening up the hole. Pairing a yarn over with a decrease keeps the stitch count constant. Many beautiful patterns separate the yarn over and decrease stitches, e.g ...

9. Fair Isle (technique) - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fair_Isle_(technique)

   Basic two-colour Fair Isle requires no additional techniques beyond the basic knit stitch: the purl stitch is not used if the garment is knit in the round. At each knit stitch, there are two available "active" colours of yarn; one is drawn through to make the knit stitch, and the other is simply held behind the piece, carried as a loose strand ...
