Jacquard stitch & Hurdle stitch

The Knit Purl Repeats 04 is created by combining the Jacquard stitch and the Hurdle stitch.

The Jacquard stitch features intricate patterns that create a nice texture, reminiscent of the elaborate designs found in jacquard fabric. In contrast, the Hurdle stitch is a simpler pattern that forms a raised texture, akin to the appearance of horizontal fence bars.

Since both The Jacquard stitch and The Hurdle stitch are knit-purl stitches and reversible, the Knit Purl Repeats 04 looks the same on both sides.
