  • Tutorial 1 – how to cast on
    The first step of knitting is casting on. Casting on means making the base row of loops that will allow us to make a knit fabric by connecting new loops in following rows. The number of loops that you need to cast on depends on the project you wanna work on and also on your yarn size.  As you… Read more: Tutorial 1 – how to cast on
  • Stockinette stitch
    The very simple fabric that is made of basic knit and purl stitches is called stockinette stitch. It means after you cast on number of stitches, you knit the first row with Knit stitch and knit the second row (return row) with Purl stitch. You repeat to do Knit stitch for all odd rows, like row… Read more: Stockinette stitch

Twisted Diamond Mesh Knitting

Easy 8-row Repeat Twisted Diamond Mesh Knitting Pattern | Step-by-Step Tutorial for Beginners

Welcome back, friends! After sharing a few intricate stitch designs, I decided it was time for something much simpler—but just as stunning. The Twisted Diamond Mesh is an easy textured pattern perfect for knitters of all levels. It creates a unique diamond-like structure using basic techniques, and the result is absolutely beautiful.

Whether you’re knitting a scarf, shawl, wrap, or just want to expand your stitch library, this one is a must-try.


Why You’ll Love This Pattern

  • ✅ Easy 8-row repeat
  • ✅ No edge stitches needed
  • ✅ Only uses a multiple of 4 stitches
  • ✅ Great with both fine and thicker yarn
  • ✅ Perfect for adding dimension to your project

Materials Used

For the sample in this tutorial:

  • Thicker yarn with 4.5 mm needles
  • Finer yarn with 2.5 mm needles for demonstration

You’ll also need to work a few base rows before starting. I cast on 16 stitches and knitted three rows in basic ribbing to establish the base.


Pattern Instructions:

Row 1: edge, Purl, edge 
Row 2: edge, rep [M1LL, K2], M1LL, edge
Row 3: edge, rep [SL1, P2], SL1, edge
Row 4: edge, rep [(k4tog tbl, k4tog), K2], (k4tog tbl, k4tog), edge
Row 5: edge, Purl, edge
Row 6: edge, K2, rep [M1LL, K2], edge
Row 7: edge, P2, rep [SL1, P2], edge
Row 8: edge, K2, rep [(k4tog tbl, k4tog)], K2, edge

Note: (M1LL) : The right needle is inserted into the second loop from the top, between the edge stitch and the next stitch, counting downward. Once inserted, the working yarn is grabbed and pulled through to create a long loop.

Note: (k4tog tbl, k4tog) : The right needle is inserted into all four stitches through the back loop, and they are knitted together. The stitches should not be slipped off the needle yet. Instead, the right needle is inserted knitwise into the same four stitches again, and they are knitted together once more. Then, the stitches are slipped off the needle.


See It in Action

In my video tutorial, I walk you through each step—showing the difference in texture when using thicker vs. finer yarn. You’ll see exactly how the loops are formed and how the diamonds begin to emerge as the rows build up.
