A delightful two-color stitch pattern that resembles crochet. The pattern is similar to the daisy stitch and makes use of the Make One Purl stitch. With a four row repeat it is easy to memorize and fun to knit!

Try a sample of each with scrap yarn and see what you think. Happy knitting!
Michelle,
My pattern calls for the Star Stitch, Estonian method. I would prefer to use your Star Stitch. Do you think it will look much different if I do?
Thank you.

Thanks for your kind words! In my experience, the Daisy Stitch has one yarn over between the two K3tog. These directions seem to be calling for a double yarn over that would result in 4 sts. I would work only one yarn over between the k3tog.
Hi Michele. You are always my go-to site for clear instructions, but I am stumped on a pattern calling for the Daisy stitch. It starts out with a purl1, then knit 3together, leave on left needle, wind yarn around R needle, over top and back to front again, then knit the same 3 stitches and drop from needle. I end up with four stitches from those three I knitted together. I am afraid to vary from the pattern by using your star stitch. Any suggestions?
Btw, your site is the BEST.
Good try – I would never be that obvious! It is a pattern featured in my upcoming book.
Is this a hint about the Fall KAL? ; )
