2x2 rib refers to K2P2 ribbing. K2P2 ribbing means that you alternate two knit stitches with two purl stitches across the width of the work. Similarly, 1x1 ribbing is sometimes called K1P1 ribbing, and you'd alternate knits and purls across the work. Other sorts of ribbing my be notated as 3x1 (K3P1) or 3x2 (K3P2). The total length and width of the pattern (of whatever ribbing you are knitting) will be specified by the particular pattern that you are knitting. The number (1,2,3...) with the ribbing only specifies how wide the ribs will be.

Double knitting is a form of knitting in which two fabrics are knitted simultaneously on one pair of needles.
Double knitting is also called sport weight yarn and is not as thick as worsted weight. 2 ply wool is thinner than double knitting and is usually used for making socks.
The rick rib stitch is a copyrighted stitch from Barbara Walker's Second Treasury of Knitting Patterns, page 260. Because of copyright, it is not legal for me to copy her instructions here. I suggest you visit your local library or knit shop and look it up in that book.
Double Knitting (DK) is a yarn weight. You would have to have a 4 ply that is DK weight in order for it to come out the size you expect.

You will have to sew it together.
I believe the word is misspelled --- more than likely the word should be garter - meaning every row is knit - which gives you a lateral rib.
I'm not sure what bpn's are. But dpn means "double pointed needles."
