Knitting tutorial: Twisted rib

How to work twisted rib, a variation on the classic 1x1 rib often used in edgings. This tutorial shows twisted knit and purl stitches, how they differ from regular stitches, and how to work twisted rib both flat and in the round. These stitches are commonly abbreviated to k1tbl and p1tbl (TBL = through back loop).

I've been doing all my knit stiches as twisted knit stiches all these years????!!!! I picked up knitting as a hobby again recently, so I bought a book on learning to knit to revisit all the info and go about my re-learning practice in order. I kept thinking that my samples were not matching the example pictures exactly, I figured it was tension or the yarn I was using. Imagine my confusion when I got to the instructions of twisted ribbings saying "knit through the back loop" I was all "but... I'm already doing that???!" So here I am looking at your wonderful tutorial realizing I've been actually doing the knit stich wrong all these years 😂😳

Time to learn the actual knit stitch 😆🤓

Thank you for this explanation. I am making a sweater using twisted rib on circular needles but my swatch is knitted flat. Couldn’t figure out what I was doing wrong until I saw your video.

Is it weird that what you call a twisted knit stitch is what I call my regular knit stitch? I find it easier to knit like this than to twist my wrist and knit in what you call normally 😅?.

Tks so much. How can you do to make it look identical on both sides?

Am I knitting the knits and purling the purls in this rib ? You didn’t say ? X

I love all your designes
I think the itens that you sell more is because they fit more stiles of bodies
An old lade or a young as you will fill pretty

When you I've looked at tutorials for twisted rib most of them tell you to KTBL and PTBL with each row. Not explaining as you have done that you alternate each time. I am still so confused!
