Stitch study: Chevron Rib
Introducing the latest in my stitch study series, a scarf this time of Chevron Rib – a simple knit and purl sequence, worked in a previously daunting to me 18 stitch by 4 row repeat. And I’m now happy to report, after just a few rows, I found it wasn’t so daunting at all. Garter Rib trims its edges, following the rhythm of the chevron waves. It’s a fun knit, with a sumptuous result, and a precursor to Let the Games Begin – a vest of the same stitch pattern, currently underway. See what you think? It’s free, my gift. Enjoy!
