I do suggest that you get familiar with you ribber before doing these ribber scarves. I wouldn't say they're very hard - just rectangles - but I have a lot of steps to cover on the videos and I don't cover the same materials that are in the ribber course all over again.
If you're a beginner, before you dive right in, work through these videos (watch and do):

Thank you Diana, another nice scarf. I'm on a mission to use up yarn for our guild's charity projects. In the meantime, I'm getting better and better on my ribber.
ReplyDeleteYou're a great teacher! Hope to have this one up on my blog soon.

HI
ReplyDeleteI think I'm missing something. My scarf is not zagging....... it kind of zigs but doesn't zag. It also rolls. I didn't think rib rolled. Am I missing something with the tuck? row 1 rack to 4 set ribber to tuck to left. rack between 4 and 5 for 20 rows.... zig happens.
Then rack 6 and 5 for next 20 rows. Do I change the tuck direction perhaps?
