Problem !
I decided to try rib tonight , just knit 1 purl 1 . Omfg , my brain is going into meltdown .
All sorts of strange things happened , but i just kept going and now i can cope with k1 , p1 , but it doesn't look like rib!
I have 22 stitches on ( started with 20
, but hey ho ) , and lets say i start a row with a knit stitch . I do the k1 , purl1 all the way along and end with a purl stitch . I then start the next row with a purl stitch , is that right ?
The knitting looks ok , but nothing like a rib , it looks like what i would call ' baby cardigan' stitch . Sort of alternate bobbly bits . I think i must be doing something wrong somewhere .
The way i am doing it means all the purl stitches are above eachother , as are the knit stitches . I was expecting to see a normal rib thing , like on a cuff .
I bring the yarn to the front for the purl stitch , and move it to the back for knit stitch .
I must sound a total div , " move to the front , purl the stitch , move to the back , knit the stitch " , but it means i can remember what stitch i just did !
My brain hurts !
