Does this only work for 1x1 rib? I am trying it on 2x2 using your second method on waste yarn, and it has open loops that unravel. I'm not sure if I'm doing something wrong or if it just doesn't work on 2x2.
The 2x2 rib is indeed more stable than the 1x1, and this method should work without any open loops. However, there's something I need to clarify. In the Passap manual, 2x2 ribbing is achieved by using a 2x1 arrangement (2 working needles and 1 out-of-work) because the machine won't create a good-looking cast-on with the needles arranged as 2x2 (2 working needles and 2 out-of-work). It's similar to the tubular cast-on but involves rotating the racking handle. If you want to start with the needles in a 2x2 arrangement, you might consider making a tubular cast on for 1x1 rib, then transfer the stitches with the double-bodkin tool to 2x2. I guess this method won't work in that case.
@@ArtOfClay Yes, I was doing the 2x1 arrangement as you showed on your other video :) I noticed on my sample that from the two stitches on each rib, there is functionally a stitch going the other direction made up of the middle of the two. This is the part that unravels if I do not start the cast on in the normal way. Fortunately, it does not really need any additional steps to lie flat. You are right that it is stable from the beginning.
Thank you for the feedback! 🙂 I will try to knit a test piece in a 2x1 rib tomorrow to see if it will start to unravel, as you said. At least in my head, this method should work.
Great rib video. The only option missing is the cast on comb version. Also a very fine wire can be inserted into the stitches of the rib and pulled like you did with the strong thread. I wonder if you could 3D print a cast on comb. With the dimensions of a sling bed, it would need to be done in connecting sections. Doable. Then fine piano wire could be used for the wire that would go through the comb pins. Ummm yet another option for 3D printing.
Thank you for the fantastic suggestion! I wasn't aware that a cast-on comb could eliminate the need for waste yarn. I'm excited to try making one and experimenting with a flat rib cast-on using it. Your insight is greatly appreciated!
Это то же самое, что и полуанглийская резинка? Передняя фонтура вяжет каждый ряд, а задняя втыкает каждый второй ряд? Названия этих техник вязания могут сильно отличаться в разных языках.
