YO K2tog Also Knot as Yarn Over, Knit 2 Together

Yarn Over, Knit Two Together on a Knitting Loom

YO K2tog

YO K2tog is for short hand for yarn over, knit two together. You will find it on many lacy patterns including some of my own.

It may sound intimidating but it is actually very easy. Let me show you the technique using pictures, words and of course, a video tutorial.

Supplies Used on the Video

The stitch pattern on the above feature picture is the Faggot Stitch. I did not name this stitch nor am I trying to be rude. The name comes from a 13th century term which means a bundle of twigs. I totally love this simple lace stitch. It is very easy to do but can be a bit tricky. There are multiple versions with slight variations of the same stitch but this one is the easiest to do and everyone knows that I’m a sucker for easy to do stitch patterns.

Yo K2tog Step 1-4

This technique is worked over 2 pegs. Both should have loops.

Step 1: Move the loop from the peg on the left to the one on the right.

Step 2: Yarn over the peg on the left. Place working yarn flat, in front of the peg or do an e-Wrap stitch.

    Hi Denise\
    Thank you for the extra peg markers and rubber bands you put in my order. I really appreciate it and they are perfect! Not sure if you got my other emails so sending this one!

    Hi Denise!
    I love the stitch pattern in your example! Will you share how to do that one at some point? Do any of your complete project tutorials use this technique? I always love your videos!

    I am a patreon and cannot open Tiny Chicks instructions. Help

    • Denise Canela March 28, 2018 at 11:31 pm

      Hi Maria – thanks soooooo much for being a Patron – I emailed the pattern to you but here is a link with instruction for how to download pattern on the Patreon website: How to Use Patreon: Click HERE

    I do not have a kindle for your ebook. I am a Patreon. Any suggestions?

    • Denise Canela March 28, 2018 at 11:29 pm

      HI Maria,
      Patrons get a 7 stitch book free – I resent that one. You don’t need a Kindle if you purchase the 10 stitch book from Etsy – You can just download it to your personal computer.

    Thanks Denise, ssk makes perfect sense now! Love the project your working on ?

    • Denise Canela March 28, 2018 at 11:19 pm

      Thank YOU Teresa – stay tuned for the stitch pattern.
