Weft Knit Construction•Indicative Specification
Rib 2×2
Rib 2×2 alternates two knit and two purl stitches, creating a wider, more textured rib pattern. It has good stretch but slightly less than 1×1 rib, with a more structured hand feel. Often chosen for baby leggings and trousers where a visible rib texture is part of the design.
