A few months ago, I saw on the web an alternative method of knitting that has become quite popular. This technique had its very own stitches and the end result was quite beautiful. I believe that somebody wrote an entire book which teaches this technique. No matter how hard I try, I cannot remember what this technique is called. Is this what they call a "senior moment"? I believe the word began with B, or K, but I am not really sure even about that! Does anybody have a clue?

combination knitting?
http://knitting.about.com/od/knittingglossary/g/Combination-Knitting.htm

that's how I've been knitting all along

 

[logcabin94]

Nope. I do, in fact, use combo knitting that I learned from Annie Modesitt. This "missing" technique somewhere in the back of my brain even has its own stitches! Argh...this is so frustrating! Thanks for your reply!

warp, weft?
entrelac

 

[logcabin94]

Nope. The word had seven or eight letters. I remember that the end result was beautiful!!

Is it Croknit knitting????

 

[logcabin94]

Nope. But...WOW...that certainly sounds like one worth exploring!!

Thanks!!

Could it be Board Knitting (Loom Knitting)?
That has their own stitch technique.

Or Maybe Entrelac?

I believe she is talking about "Knooking"

 

[knittingstash]

Just saw pattern books and needles at joanne fabrics today for knooking, looks interesting

 

[logcabin94]

Wow--knooking is indeed interesting. BUT...that was NOT what I was searching for. I am so very appreciative of your reply. I really feel like a dunce!!

Sorry wish I could help, but it escapes me right now.

Stitch a Day has a good tutorial video on this stitch.
Looks like it would be fun to use for a cowl (I'm on a cowl for gifts thing this fall.)

Take Joy,

I just had to have a look at this, and wow, is it interesting. I can see some face/dish clothes coming along from this, or maybe just some more squares for my afghan. I'm definitely going to give it a try, and I found the Brioche as well...can't wait for some spare time now.

Brioche??? Thought that was a French bun! :roll:
