In this DROPS video we show you how to work knit 2, purl 2, in the round using the UK/US knitting style. This textured pattern is called rib/ribbing and is one of many varieties.


BEFORE THE VIDEO STARTS:
The stitch count needs to be divisible by 4 so that all knitted stitches are above each other and all purled stitches are above each other. We have already worked a few centimeters of the ribbed pattern.

THE VIDEO SHOWS:
ROUND 1: Knit 2, purl 2, to end of round.
ROUND 2: The stitches are worked in the same way as the stitches below = knit above knit and purl above purl.

Repeat ROUND 2 onward.
