Jess errata
It has come to my attention that there may be an error in the instructions for the basketweave stitch pattern. I will check the pattern and send out an amended version at the weekend, but in the meantime, here is a correct version of the stitch pattern. I hope it hasn't caused any inconvenience.
Basketweave pattern worked over 4 sts and 8 rows
Row 1 (RS): K all sts
Row 2: P all sts
Row 3: (P2, K2) to end
Row 4: As row 3
Row 5-6: Rpt rows 1-2
Row 7: (K2, P2) to end
Row 8: As row 7
In other words, on rows 4 and 8, you purl all the purl sts as they face you, and k all the k sts as they face you. I think this is fairly clear from the photo of the stitch pattern.

The woman who taught me to knit called that "stitch what you see".

LOL! I thought I was doing something wrong, as my swatch kept coming out with wonky stitches. Finally, I thought, "Stop reading the pattern and knit what you know is Basketweave!". I ordered some Rowanspun Chunky to swatch for Jess.
