Waving rib patternEntry/Object ID
2020.1.15Description
From the book: "Though the ribs are knitted straight, a hint of wave is imparted to them by the purl stitches, which draw them slightly left and right. The reverse side of this pattern is a most attractive little block stitch arranged in basketweave fashion."Collection
