Description

From the book: "This is the simplest form of ribbing, most often used to sweaters at lower edges, neck bands and cuffs. It can be pleasantly varied and made to look a little fancier by crossing the stitches on the right side; that is, by knitting each right-side knit stitch through the back loop."
