Little Hourglass Ribbing

Yarn: Fibranatura Baby Merino (Emily – bright pink)

Wraps Per Inch: 11 wpi (per Ravelry yarn database)

Needles: 3.25mm (US 3)

Gauge: 27 sts/32 rows = 4″

Pattern: Little Hourglass Ribbing

Stitch Count Repeat:  Multiple of 4sts

Book: A Treasury of Knitting Patterns

Page: 51

Difficult Techniques:  Somewhat challenging to knit into front and back of two stitches at once.

Comments: Lays flat. Stitch count changes on row 3 so counting stitches on (or immediately after) this row could lead to confusion.  I originally knit this using Cascade 220 but I didn’t think it looked very good.  I’ve added photos of that swatch to my flicker account.  If you’re interested you can see them here.
