I love this post not only because this is a beautiful project with such a pretty rib pattern (I know it was misery, but so worth it), but also because I’m knitting a tank in Euroflax myself. I’ve been wondering if I should have used a smaller needle and your work confirms it. Now I have to go assess whether I’m too far in to turn back and start again. It’s a bottom up, so just having to cast on all those stitches again seems like more than I can handle. Thanks for showing how great Euroflax can look in a fine cage.

I love the way it looks in the Euroflax, the texture is beautiful. Lovely photo too. I think 1×1 twisted rib would probably kill me before too long – I salute you.

as someone in the middle of laceweight ribbing for the featherweight cardigan, I understand! Oh and I have an aversion to picking up for collars and bands too. I am notoriously bad at it.

It’s looking good. I don’t know too many knitters who actually like ribbing! LOL It’s just one of the things we do before moving on to more exciting stitches. I even remember someone saying they couldn’t knit their second Pomatomus sock because of “all that ribbing”!
