As you’ll be alternating between a knit and a purl stitch, now bring the yarn between the needles to the back and knit one stitch.Keep alternating between one knit and one purl until you have worked all stitches on your needle.

You have now done one row of 1x1 rib stitch, congrats! Now onto the next row.

Now when you’re working your next row, it’s important to make sure that you knit a stitch, if that stitch on the last row, was also a knit stitch. To tell what stitch to knit next, look at the fabric. If the next stitch is a ‘v’, it should be knitted. If the next stitch is a horizontal bump, it should be purled.

If you’re working across an uneven number of stitches, then on row one knit one stitch. Then bring your yarn between your needles and purl one stitch. Bring the yarn back behind your needles and knit one stitch. Continue until you’ve worked all stitches. Then on your next row, you start with a purl stitch. Happy knitting, Gang!
