Fancy Stitch Combos - Rickrack Rib

Instructions for working this stitch are below, and on my website here:
verypink.com/20...
Instructions for working this stitch:
Row 1: P1, Ktbl the second stitch on the left needle (leaving that stitch on the needle), K the first stitch, pull both stitches off the left needle, P1
Row 2: K1, P into the second stitch on the left needle (leaving that stitch on the needle), P the first stitch, pull both stitches off the left needle, K1
Repeat these two rows for the pattern.
For the nicest looking bind-off, BO on Row 1, in pattern. It's a little tricky to pull one stitch over the other after working into the second stitch on the left needle, but it's possible! Otherwise, you can work the BO in a P1, K2 rib.
Instructions for working this stitch in-the-round:
Cast-on a multiple of 3
Row 1: P1, Ktbl the second stitch on the left needle (leaving that stitch on the needle), K the first stitch, pull both stitches off the left needle
Row 2: P1, K into the front of the second stitch on the left needle (leaving that stitch on the needle), K the first stitch normally, pull both stitches off the left needle

[@Randomnessensues441]

Love this! Thank you for sharing!

[@KULRICKSEN]

I love this stitch I am going to try this on a pair of boot Warmers. Thank you

[@holykrip]

To make it look more like the flat pattern, I think you want to bring the needle *behind* the first stitch, come forward between them, knit the second stitch and then knit the first stitch. It's an awkward motion, but it leaves the left leaning stitch in front instead of behind as you're doing.

[@debido2u]

Love the stitch thank you.

[@DawnEdwards6267]

Thank you so much! Love this stitch!

[@PaulaKnits]

Love the stitch. After some playing around, am going to try a hat in the round. Word of caution, use a loose cast on. It will make the first row much easier

[@lanadavis9535]

Love the look of this stitch! But I can't wrap my head around how to pull it off as a combination knitter. My working yarn wraps counterclockwise on my knit stitch, but clockwise on my purls. This affects which side of the needle my leading leg is on, and it's different based on whether I'm working a flat piece or in the round. Figuring this out will definitely make for good mental exercise!

[@Evilimp000]

So it's like cabling without a cable needle!

[@SweetHina]

i love this pattern, however i should've used smaller needles for a tighter look. I'm using a Red Heart Super Saver brand, with a tie-dye look, using size 8 needles. I'm making a Scoodie using this pattern. I'm looking forward to it (n.n)

[@YannaMichaelides]

OMG! I have fallen in love with this stitch . I am thinking of a baby hat. I just wanted to know how easily could be to make the decreases. Thanks

[@KatBat67]

I'm thinking this stitch would make pretty place mats for my kitchen. :)

[@garry-juliesilvey5132]

Would this be a good stitch for a finer gauge sweater neckline?

[@colinstanton56]

I am trying to do a sleeve with Rickrack rib but i am getting into trouble when you have to add extra sts on the ends of the row the next row i get mixed up with the pattern i know it must be me would love to see you on a video doing increases in a pattern.x

[@anuzcreations1912]

Mame kindly tell me how to knit buttonhole in rick rac rib pattern?

[@melissavines4454]

Love the stitch pattern and that is a two row repeat.... I have trouble with longer more complicated patterns. Anyway can you give me an idea of what the grey swatch was yarn weight and needles used? Maybe worsted and size 8 or 9 needles? Thanks again and love your channel!

[@verypinkknits]

Melissa Vines - you'll always find all of the information about everything you see in my videos (yarn, needles, patterns, notions, etc) in the video description field, just below the video. The yarn used in the gray swatch is Malabrigo Chunky, and I used size 10.5 US (6.5mm) needles.

[@parmonie]

I think it's the fact that you're knitting the second stitch first. It makes it overlap, if that makes sense.

[@Maggie365]

This is crazy talk!

[@thuhienduong7631]

love this stitch so much, I used it to make a scarf but my scarf starts curling when it's about 30cm long, just one side of the hem's curl, the other side's still ok help me @@

[@verypinkknits]

Hiên Hiên Tiểu - this stitch shouldn't curl...my best guess is that you are using a needle size too small for the yarn you're using. Using a bigger needle with the same yarn should prevent curling.

[@msprettyk6102]

So the ktbl in the second stitch makes the zig zags?

[@karenfavreau6268]

Hi, how do you do this when knitting ribbing in the round?

[@verypinkknits]

The instructions for knitting this in-the-round are in the video description field, just below the video.

[@sockwidowmaker]

Can this stitch be done in a round, if so how?

[@verypinkknits]

Yes - instructions for working this stitch in-the-round are in the video description field, just below the video.

There's not going to be any tinking on this one. I see a lot of lifelines in my future.
