In knitting, "rib 2 tog" refers to a specific decrease technique used in ribbing patterns. It means to knit two stitches together in a ribbed section, typically where the ribbing alternates between knit and purl stitches. This decrease will reduce the number of stitches in that row while maintaining the ribbed texture. It is commonly used to shape garments or create a decorative element in the knit fabric.
In knitting, a rib is a type of stitch pattern created by alternating knit and purl stitches (For instance, Knit 1, purl 1 or knit 2, purl 2). This technique creates vertical, textural stripes called ribs. There are many variations on rib stitches.

Single crochet 2 stitches together.
You mean "inc"? That is increase.

A plain knit is simply knitting each stitch on the front or public side of the fabric and purling each stitch on the back or private side of the fabric. This stitch is called stockinette stitch. Garter stitch, where each and every row is knit across, regardless of whether you are working the front or back side, produces horizontal ridges that are somewhat similar to ribbing turned 90 degrees and somewhat stretchy, but not as stretchy as ribbing. Ribbing is created by knitting a sequence of knit and purl stitches to create raised vertical ridges in the fabric which are especially elastic and well suited to cuffs and necks. The most common ribbing patters are 1 x 1 and 2 x 2. For 1 x 1 ribbing: *K1, P1, repeat from * across For 2 x 2 ribbing: *K2, P2, repeat from * across There are other combinations possible, such as 3 x 3 or 2 x 3 or what ever your heart desires, but 1 x 1 and 2 x 2 are the most commonly used rib patterns. A plain knit is simply knitting each stitch on the front or public side of the fabric and purling each stitch on the back or private side of the fabric. This stitch is called stockinette stitch. A rib knit is created by knitting 2 stitches, and purling 2 stitches, over and over. Example: cast on 10 stitches. knit 2,purl 2, knit 2, purl 2, knit 2 next row: purl 2, knit 2, purl 2, knit 2, purl 2 Repeat these rows for about 4 inches, and you'll see the rib knit pattern. Another version of rib knit, is, knit 1, purl 1, knit 1, purl one. You'll get the same pattern as above, just in more narrow rows. Rib knit is commonly seen on sock cuffs, and sweater cuffs.
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.
yes you can do this and there is actually a book specifically made for doing this
Pass 2 slipped stitches over.
Knitting is formed in one or a combination of two basic forms: flat or in the round. Flat knitting is typically done on straight needles and circular knitting is typically done on circular needles or double point needles. When people think of knitting in the round, typically they mean knitting a tube shape, such as a sock or hat. But it is also possible to knit actual circles instead of tubes, such as when one makes circular shawls, table cloths, or doilies. Whether knitting a tube or a flat circle, the technique is the same. The difference is that in tube knitting few if any increases or decreases are made and in knitting a flat circle increases must be made such that as the radius of the circle doubles the number of stitches on the needle also double. Mathematically, it looks like this: c = 2 * pi * r, where c is the circumference and r is the radius. The ratio of the circumference to the radius must always remain 2 * pi or the piece will not remain flat.
Yes, if you want to knit. However, your knitted fabric will be full of graphite if you use pencils to knit. Knitting needles, however, are useless for writing.
Knitting always requires two needles. Crafting fabric with one instrument, generally means crocheting.
