How to Loom Knit the Windmill Stitch

How to Loom Knit the Windmill Stitch

 

This stitch I translated from a needle knit stitch. It isn't the exact translation but something that looks like it while making it easier to accomplish on the loom.

Follow the grid to help keep up with the stitch pattern. Also follow the video on questions you might have about the grid. 

Terms:
K: Knit
P: Purl
YO: Yarn Over
K2tog: Knit 2 Stitches Together
SSK2tog: Slip, Slip, Knit 2 Stitches Together
4RCC: 4 Stitch Right Cable Cross
EW: E-Wrap
(Note: when you see a yarn over combined with the K2tog or the SSK2tog there is will a decrease in the direction of the slant, but you always want the decreased stitch on the bottom when knitting the 2 together.) The video explains.
