Pattern, Knit Flat {Back & Forth}:
CO 9 STS {or any odd number}
Row 1: WYIF S1PW *P1, K1* P1, WYIF S1PW
Row 2: K1TBL *P1, K1* P1, K1TBL
Repeat rows 1-2 until it measures 10” {25 cm} or desired length. I knit mine until it was about 2-3” {5-8cm} too small and I stretched it to make it fit. I wanted the stitches to be further apart.
Tip: Place a stitch marker on the ODD side, so you know which side to slip STS and which side to knit. :) {It doesn’t matter which side you put the stitch marker on as long as you’re consistent with which side you knit and which side you slip the first stitch.}
BO on an even row: K1TBL *P1, K1* P1, K1TBL
Sew the Seam:
Sew the CO & BO edges together to create the circumference.
I seamed it together while it was wrapped around the planter instead of seaming it and then trying to slip it on the planter.
Weave in the ends.
