This stitch is primarily used for shawls and wraps but with a little imagination you could combine this interesting stitch with other stitches to create a beautiful effect. In order to keep this stitch a little neat you will need a ruler or I borrowed a little gadget from the quilters called \u201cSeams Right\u201d that can be purchased at Walmart. It is a plastic ruler with 17 measurements (1\/4, 3\/8, 1 \u00bd) up to 2 inches. You do not have to use it but it does make things easier. To start: ch 2, sc in 2nd ch from hook. * Now pull on your hook to make the loop(the one on your hook) longer to \u00be of an inch, these are the 2 FRONT loops. Move your hold(yarn hand not hook hand) to just above the sc made at beginning, hold it taut. This keeps the loop you just made from getting bigger\/smaller. Yarn Over make sure it is the same length as your loop, still hold on, pull through loop on your hook, this is the BACK loop. You now should have 3 approximately the same length of thread. Insert your hook in between the 2 FRONT loops and the BACK loop, Yarn over pull through, you now have 2 small loops on your hook, yarn over pull through both loops*. Repeat from * to * for desired length. The trick to keeping this stitch neat is your base\/beginning and turning knots must be just a little shorter in length than the other Solomon Knot. For example to begin make 6 SK(Solomon knot) \u00be of an inch long , 1 SK 1 inch long, turn. Row 1: sc in 3rd sc from hook , 2 -1 inch long SK, skip next sc, sc in next sc, 2 -1 inch long SK, skip next sc, sc in next sc, 2 SK \u00be inch long, 1 SK 1 inch long turn. Row 2: sc in 4th sc from hook, 2 -1 inch long SK, skip next sc, sc in next sc, 2 -1 inch long SK , skip next sc, sc in next sc, 2 SK \u00be inch long, 1 SK 1 inch long turn. Repeat row 2 for desired length. To end off you would make your last row all \u00be inch long. If you have any trouble, please feel free to stop by the forum and post any questions.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
