This technique is used in Fisherman Ribbing. It's easier than it sounds. I've knitted a small swatch to show you the difference between just knitting the next stitch and knitting into the stitch below If you have any questions, please e-mail me.

| Knit in Stitch below This technique is used in Fisherman Ribbing. It's easier than it sounds. I've knitted a small swatch to show you the difference between just knitting the next stitch and knitting into the stitch below If you have any questions, please e-mail me. |

| In the photo above, you can see how you normally knit into the next stitch. This is NOT knitting in the stitch below. | ||||||||||||||||||

| In this photo, when you knit into the next stitch, you put your needle just under the stitch below. When you pull the stitch off the left needle, you've got both stitches (the next stitch, which you would normally knit, and the stitch that's just below the one you would normally knit). Knitting in the stitch below makes a very fluffy rib stitch. I love it. | ||||||||||||||||||
