Arabian ogee tiles call for an Arabian endearment, so my friend Behiya suggesed habibi. This pattern is a mix of soothing-ish normality, and occasional rows of adventure. But there are charts to keep you on the right path, and satisfying chances to crow, “Look at that rib, I made it slide sideways!”

Habibi is knit in one piece, and it’s self-edged. The alternating stockinette and reverse stockinette ‘’tiles’’ are shaped by increases and decreases, with a narrow edge of ribbing in between them. The nearly horizontal ribbed sections are made with reversible ‘’Short Row Slides.’’ The test knitters for Al-Andalus gave me many suggestions to make them easy to navigate, and I hired two TE to make sure I wrote it plainly.

I made my Habibi in superwash wool; but you may wish to use untreated wool or cotton.
