This stitch gives an interesting look and twist to basic stockinette. The look of textured stripes is achieved by two rows of ribbing between twice as many rows of stockinette. Two pluses for this pattern is that it lies flat with minimal blocking unlike regular stockinette and is simple to exicute only requiring knits and purls. This stitch however creates a right side and a wrong side to the fabric.
