In this DROPS video we show how to work an easy and nice texture pattern, such as the rib to the Rose Blush vest in DROPS 212-44.
Work like this:
From RS: Work 3 edge stitches in garter stitch, * 2 stitches in stocking stitch , 2 stitches in garter stitch *, work from *-* until there are 5 stitches left, 2 stitches in stocking stitch and finish with 3 edge stitches in garter stitch.
From WS: Work 3 edge stitches in garter stitch, * 2 stitches in stocking stitch , 2 stitches in garter stitch *, work from *-* until there are 5 stitches left, 2 stitches in stocking stitch and finish with 3 edge stitches in garter stitch.
Continue like this to desired length.
Ridge/garter stitch: Knit all rows.
We use the yarn DROPS Snow in the video.

When you are doing a pattern like this, 2 st stocking, 2 st garter -- when you are on the RS, doesn't that just mean you're doing a garter stitch for the whole row? Then on the WS you're doing purl 2, knit 2? I am just learning the stocking stitch so am a bit confused as to how to do this pattern. Thank you!

Dear Miranda, when you work a pattern like this with 2 sts in stocking stitch, 2 sts in garter stitch, you will knit all stitches from RS and from WS you will purl the 2 sts in stocking stitch and knit the 2 sts in garter stitch. Happy knitting! 02.01.2023 - 15:22
