Free Knitting Patterns
Free knitting patterns Turkish stitch (fig. 383).—1st row—slip
1, knit 1, over, knit 2 together, over, knit 2 together, and so on to the 2
last stitches, which you knit plain.

2nd row—slip the 1st, knit the 2nd and the 3rd plain, the
latter having been formed by the last over on the 1st needle; 1 over, 1 intake
with the stitch and the over, 1 over, 1 intake and so on.
Turkish stitch with beads (fig. 384).—String the beads
on the thread before you begin to knit. When you only use one kind of bead,
thread a needle with your knitting cotton and run it through the thread on which
the beads are strung.
When you use several kinds, you must count and thread them on
in the required order. Beaded knitting is little in request now, excepting for
tobacco pouches and purses; for which you should use Cordonnet 6 fils D.M.C
Nos. 35, in any colour, and small beads.
For close beaded knitting, plain stitch is the best. Run the beads down singly
at each stitch. The beads will fall on the reverse side of the work so that
in knitting with beads, remember that the reverse side will be the right side.
To work fig. 384, which represents the same stitch as fig. 383, you run down
2 or sometimes 3 beads before knitting each stitch for this free knitting patterns project.
