Just after Christmas, I learned how to knit the Brioche stitch pattern. I've now added Fisherman's Rib. It looks almost identical, but it worked quite differently.
Fisherman's Rib on the flat is worked over an odd number of stitchs. The first stitch is slipped, and the rest of the row is (K1, K1b). This one row is repeated as many times as needed. In the round, cast on an even number of stitches. The first round is (K1b, K1) repeat, and the second is (P1, P1b) repeat. It's wonderfully squishy and lovely. To work it in two colours, Use foreground colour for the knits, and the background colour for the purls.
