Mistake Rib Beanie & Scarf Using Berroco Ultra Alpaca
The Design
Ah, the magic of mistake rib―it's worked in the soothing rhythm of K2/P2 ribbing but an extra stitch 'oopses' the next row over by one, giving you a much more complex texture than the simple ribbing instructions would imply. Three skeins makes the whole set―great as a gift for that special guy or gal in your life!
