What is the best knitting stitch for Lionbrand Homespun Yarn?

In: Crocheting and Knitting [Edit categories]

Answer:

With Lion Brand Homespun yarn, it is best to use a simple stitch, either garter or stockinette, due to the fact that, as a textured yarn, fancy stitches would be unappreciated and awkward-looking.

It is a very beautiful yarn that is gorgeous in both garter and stockinette, especially if both stitches are used in the same piece. (Example: if doing a hat work a 2-inch brim in garter, and do the rest in stockinette.)
