This pattern is for a checks design worked in polyester yarn on a 28 gauge 32 diameter machine.

Materials:

• Yarn: Polyester yarn, 250g (300 meters)
• Machine: 28 gauge, 32 diameter machine
• Needle: US size 4 (3.5mm), UK old size 9, Metric size 3.5mm

Gauge:

Since the gauge for this design is specific to the 28 gauge machine, make sure to check your tension before starting the project.

Pattern:

1. Set up your machine with the polyester yarn.
2. Cast on the desired number of stitches according to the width of your project.
3. Knit the first row to establish the base.
4. Begin the checks design by following this pattern:

R1: Knit across
R2: Purl across
R3: *K2, P2; repeat from * to end
R4: Purl across
Repeat these 4 rows for the checks design

Finishing:

1. Once you have reached the desired length, bind off the stitches.
2. Weave in any loose ends and trim the yarn.
3. Block the piece to ensure the checks pattern is nicely defined.

Enjoy your new checks design fabric!
