The Cupido Stitch
About This Stitch Pattern
The Cupido Stitch uses slipped stitches over a garter stitch base to create a nice textured fabric. The slipped stitches are staggered in a stair stepped arrangement which will add a lot of visual interest. It’s a great pattern to use in projects like scarves or cowls and even blankets and pillows.
