April Project - 12 Months of Knitting with Adonmu

๐Ÿงถ  APRIL 2026 Stockinette Frame Square ๐Ÿ’›  Welcome to April In March, you learned how to follow a pattern. In April, you begin to understand your fabric.

This is where control begins. ๐ŸŒฟ  What You’ll Learn • The difference between right side and wrong side • How stockinette stitch is formed • How to alternate knit and purl rows • How fabric behaves and responds • How to maintain smoother, more even stitches ๐Ÿชก  Materials • Medium weight (worsted) yarn • 4 mm knitting needles • Tapestry needle • Scissors ๐Ÿ“  Finished Size Approx. 18–20 cm square (...

March Project - 12 Months of Knitting with Adonmu

  Welcome to March! February strengthened your coordination. March strengthens your understanding. This month, we are building texture using only knit and purl stitches. No new tools.

February Project - 12 Months of Knitting with Adonmu

If January felt slow or unfinished, this project is your fresh start. February’s Project is designed to be small, wearable and confidence-building - something you can complete without pressure, and actually use. This month we are learning the Purl Stitch and how it works with the Knit Stitch to create Ribbing . Ribbed fabric is stretchy, forgiving, and perfect for beginners who are still finding their rhythm. Ribbing stretches - so does confidence! Your February Project is a twisted ribbed headband - a simple accessory that looks polished but is built from just two stitches.  There’s no rush to finish; the goal is to get comfortable switching between Knit and Purl and to enjoy watching the fabric come to life in your hands.  If your stitches aren’t perfect, that’s okay. Ribbing is kind. It stretches, it relaxes, and it improves as you go. By the end of this project you’ll have a finished headband and a new skill that opens the door to many more patterns ahead!
