Double Lace Rib Stitch

The Double Lace Rib Knitting Stitch Pattern

About this Stitch Pattern


The Double Lace Rib Stitch is a relatively simple way to dress up the rib stitch that does not pull in the fabric as much as traditional ribbing. The double lace rib would be great as a decorative panel in any project or could be used to add a little bit of beautiful texture. It’s perfect for a scarf just on its own.

    we are really impressed with the layout of your website it has really helped us work out how to some of the stitches thank you for every thing.

  2. Metta says:

    Can you provide any general guidelines for working a lace ribbing pattern like this in the round?

    For example, should I simply work a multiple of 6 stitches only (deleting the +2) and then reverse the even rows:
    — K2 – P1

    Hi there!
    I’m a little confused about the different between yon and yfrn. According to your instructions on knitting the ‘yarn over (yo)’, they are pretty much the same.
    Thank you!

    • Johnny Vasquez says:

      Yarn Over Needle (yon) is used when going from a knit stitch to a purl stitch. Yarn Forward Round Needle (yfrn) is used when going from a knit stitch to a purl stitch. They are both different types of Yarn Overs (yo). Does that help?
