Product Details

This is a one-size, knitted afikomen cover, knitted in one piece with light seaming and an added button and optional duplicate stitch pattern. The vertical stripes are done using a fancy laddering technique - it’s much easier than it looks! You have three options for the color work. Choosing to do without, choosing to do it with duplicate stitch, or using the ladder technique.

I knitted this using self-dyed DK swish yarn from Knitpicks and with US 6/4mm needles. This is a 100% merino wool DK yarn, but you can use any yarn and needle combo that achieves gauge! You need such a small amount of yarn in both colors that it’s a great stash buster or an excuse to make two matching but inverted covers! I used 42g (100yds) of my main color and 12g (30yds) of my contrast color.

This is a VERY beginner friendly pattern, knitted flat, simple seaming, and the option to make it as complicated with color or as simple as you want!
