Start with an even number of stitches. Knit one, purl one. Repeat this alternating pattern across the row. Repeat the same pattern on each following row. The result is a stretchy fabric ideal for cuffs, waist bands, and collars.
keep the first stitch always as a knit stitch on both sides
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.
To achieve a professional finish on your 2x2 rib project using Jeny's stretchy bind-off technique, follow these steps: 1. Knit the first two stitches in pattern. 2. Knit the next stitch, then pass the first stitch over the second stitch. 3. Knit the next stitch, then pass the previous stitch over. Repeat from until all stitches are bound off. This technique creates a stretchy edge that complements the ribbing pattern for a polished look.
To perform a stretchy bind-off for a 2x2 rib stitch pattern, you can use a method called the "Jeny's Surprisingly Stretchy Bind-Off." This technique involves working yarnovers and decreases to create a stretchy edge that complements the ribbing. You can find tutorials and videos online to guide you through the process.
To bind off a 2x2 rib stitch pattern, you would knit the knit stitches and purl the purl stitches as you normally would. When binding off, you would knit the knit stitches and purl the purl stitches together to create a neat edge. Continue this pattern across the row until all stitches are bound off.
A stitch is a sharp pain in the side, often brought on by exercising or laughing too hard and getting a cramp in the rib muscles.
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.

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.
rib Yeah this is a ribbing stitch. After you knit a few rows it should be a very clean and neat looking pattern of purls and knits.
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.
