The pattern is knit over 4 rows in multiples of 8 stitches.
The yarn weight and size of knitting needles, will depend on the project you are attempting with the stitch.
what you’ll need:
- Knitting Needles (I used 4mm, 6US, 8UK)

I found this lovely DK Merino wool on Amazon, and it will knit out this stitch pretty well.
