In this DROPS video we show how you can work a rib. Working a rib gives an elastic piece that is great for cuffs and edges. Often worked with Knit 1 / Purl 1 or Knit 2 / Purl 2. It’s important that all knitted stitches comes above knitted stitches, and all purled stitches come above the purled stitches. First, we show a rib with Knit 2 / Purl 2, then a rib with Knit 2 twisted / Purl 2. To get the twisted stitch, knit the stitch in the back loop. We show both techniques on the same piece so that you can more easily see the difference. We use the yarn DROPS Snow in the video. You’ll find patterns with these technique by clicking on the pictures below.
