6. Ribber Transfer Between the Beds

members only
Although a ribber has needles facing in the opposite direction than the main bed, knitting garter stitch still requires hand manipulation with a ribber.

For example:
  • Cast on your main bed and hang a ribber comb
  • Knit a few rows.
  • Raise (engage) your ribber and transfer all the stitches to the rib bed
  • Knit a row.
  • Transfer all the stitches back to the main bed and knit a row.
  • Repeat for garter stitch.
