In this lesson, you’ll learn how to knit 1x1 ribbing by alternating one knit stitch and one purl stitch. This is one of the most useful stitch patterns in knitting because it creates a soft, stretchy fabric that keeps its shape well. You’ll often use 1x1 ribbing for hat brims, sweater cuffs, scarf edges, and hems. Once you understand the rhythm of knit one, purl one, it becomes easy and relaxing to knit.
