Ribbing knit fabric is created by alternating between a knit stitch and a purl stitch that creates the ribbed texture. This type of material is both comfortable and stylish, making it ideal for apparel items such as sweaters, leggings, and hats.
Created through alternating rows of knit and purl stitches, rib knits feature ridges on both sides of the fabric. This knit lies flat due to the method of knitting and generally features more stretch in the width than the length. Many t-shirts feature a rib knit in the collars as well as in the cuffs due to the ideal of amount elasticity in this fabric.
Ribbed knit fabrics have a distinct pattern of vertical ribs on both sides, produced by alternating knit (raised) and purl (lower) stitches. Ribs can be narrow (1×1 – or one knit stitch then one purl stitch), wide (3×3, 4 x4, etc.), or have an uneven width such as 2×3, for example.
