Dense

Simple crochet rib stitch

This beginner-friendly stitch makes a dense, beautiful fabric with raised ridges. Worked side to side, it recalls the classic look of knitted ribbing. Here the ribbing is decorative rather than stretchy.

🍂

It can be worked in one color or several. The ribbing effect varies with the weight and elasticity of the yarn. It works for accessories such as cozy scarves, hats, and stylish bags, and for home decor items such as coasters and table runners.
