Useful Knitting Techniques Every Knitter Should Know – Navajo Knitting

With nearly 3,000 projects, French Press Knits’ felted slipper pattern is one of the top 20 most popular patterns on Ravelry.

Thanks to an online video by Lucy Neatby, French Press Knits’ slippers are now even easier to knit. The video shows an interesting knitting technique known as Navajo Knitting.

Navajo Knitting is a simple technique that takes one strand of yarn and turns it into three. Through the simple combination of a slip knot and a single crochet chain, Navajo Knitting increases the thickness of your knitting. This method eliminates the need to separate one or two skeins of yarn into three or more.

The practice of Navajo Knitting is definitely a useful skill to add to your knitting technique arsenal.
