Today we are going to learn a variation of a classic stitch, that is, the grating stitch in relief. It is a subtle and dense weaving that is suggestive of a wrought iron grating. Maybe even of the majestic gates that guard some Tuscan farmhouses, at times surrounded by ivy or wisteria stretching along the stone walls of the property. It is a very suitable stitch for a warm winter jumper.
Shall we begin?
