Crochet Ribbing

"If you’ve ever admired the stretchy cuffs on crochet sweaters, the neat edges on hats, or the snug fit of a headband, you’ve already seen crochet ribbing in action. Ribbing adds elasticity, structure, and a beautiful texture that elevates even the simplest crochet designs. Let’s explore what crochet ribbing is, the different types, and how to choose the best one for your project. Crochet ribbing mimics the look and stretch of knitted ribbing. It’s created by working stitches in a way that forms raised ridges and recessed grooves—usually by using front and back post stitches or working in the back loops only (BLO). The result is a flexible, stretchy fabric perfect for trims, cuffs, waistbands, and decorative accents."
