In this video I show you how to knit the Diagonal Cell Stitch, this stitch is a simple 4 row repeat. This stitch does have the tendency to curl, so I recommend blocking your work or knitting a border. This stitch would make lovely placemats and wash/dish cloths.

Here are the 4 rows you need to know:

Cast on an odd number of stitches

Row 1 - k1,* loop stitch ( insert right needle in between the next 2 stitches and bring up a loop) k2* Repeat * until end of row
Row 2 - p2 ,* p2tog ( purl 2 stitches together) p1* Repeat * until end of row
Row 3 -  k2 * Loop stitch, (insert right needle in between the next 2 stitches and bring up a loop) , k2 * repeat * until 1 stitch remains on left needle, k1
Row 4 - p3, *p2tog (purl 2 stitches together), p1* Repeat * until end of row.
